Editor Polk County News
Dear Sir:
Your issue of January 10th has reached France,
and I want to thank you for the pleasure it gave me after reading all the good
news from home, because it was the first news I had received from home after being
several months in France.
Will give you a little news about myself. I was gassed on
Oct. 29th, but am in good health at present and contented after
reading the news from home. Before I was wondering if everybody was all right
at home, and that made it a little unpleasant for me. I would like to be home
and enjoy some of the good pure air that the hills and mountains of the thermal
belt produce, but not until we accomplish everything that we are over here for.
Give my regards to all my friends at Tryon. I think that it
will include everybody.
I was a little surprised when I saw the News. One could
easily notice how it has grown, especially in worldwide news.
Well, I will close with best wishes to the Polk County News
and its readers.
Sincerely,
Capt. O.L. Weaver
