Dear Mother and all
I will answer your letter I got a few days ago and was glad to hear from you. I am well and hope youall are the same. I had to go over to the first Sargent something about them papers for sending money home, he asked me when did I wont to allottements and send it home. I told him I wanted to take it out this month. I guess you will get some money by 10 of October. I haven't heard from Roberta or Martha this week. I got a letter from Va and Cecil a few minutes ago She said that Cecil had got his teeth fixed. She said that Donnie was a Monkey She said he was just like Robey. When any body calls Donnie Robey he says No No. I sure would like to see him now. It looks like I can't get no mail unless I answer every letter I get and I don't get much time to write. have you heard the war news lately its going pretty good they have took Italy. I heard they won't going to draft no more men for a while. I think the war will be over in another year I am going to buy me a war bond soon as I save enought money its hard to make it off of 21 dollars a month. I went swimming last Sunday I had a nice time. Sunday morning I went to Macon it is the clost town around it is about 7 miles from camp It has turned a lots cooler down here now.
I guess it is lonesome at home when the childrens has gone to school what is papa doing now I guess he have to work pretty hard beings he doesn't have any help. I guess I will be back pretty soon to help clean up the place. ant no bother my car yet have they. when ever its time to pay taxes on that place take my money and pay half of it.
Well since news is scarce I will close by by With Love to all
answer soon
