LETTER from IRA M ARKER
We have received ihe following
letter from Ira Marker in France
Vertov France,,
leb.il 1919.
Dear Friends,
1 received your
card yes tei cd y aid was very
m ich pleased to hear f om you
but would mt.ch lather have
had a nice long; letter giving
ne all the McCartl y news
I h v.'had only two letters
since leaving: 11 ei e rrd our mail
has been tied i p all winter
We were supposed to leave
here on the 22nd. December, but
God oniy 1 i ov\s wbc n we will.
We have had lots of rain and
mud, were drilling: in it every
day untill recently.
My company h.s been made
Military Police and that is no
fun standing around on the cor
ners in the cold, we had one
week of real void weather for
this counti.y and quite a little
| ice.
I am getting very tired of the
country, not so much of the
I country as of our Officers they
are so strict with us that we
cannot make a move but what
they want to put us in the clink.
Well, I have been very lucky
here-seen a whole lot and was
up to the Front three times and
came back each time without a
scratch, I got a shot of gas how
ever, one trip which caused a
I lot of pain for some time but I
lam fit as a fiddle now.
A hundred small accounts make a bank stronger than a dc/en
large ones aggregating the same total of deposits, That is why
wc are constantly seeking new easterners *hife ieter'n’ng cur
old ones.
We want as wide a circle of friends andcusfcmc-s is possible
We will appreciate ycur account.
