Letters From France to
Camp Hill Minister
Camp Hill, Pa., May 28. —The Rev.
Dr. E. M. Stephenson, of Camp Hill,
has heard from his niece. Miss Mary
Stephenson, who is with a St. Louis
contingent of trained nurses serving
In a British hospital in France,
a son Louie, who U an airman, en
listing at Sparta, 111. Miss Stephen
son writes:
"Dear Uncle: I am very busy and
cannot write much and cannot say
what I otherwise would on account
of the censor. X &m very well and
like the work as well as anyone can
like this sort of thing. I have been
advanced to the head of the nurses
of this hospital and so have an added
task in making out reports. This
takes about two hours every night.
There are many patients in this hos
pital by the name Stephenson, but
so far I have not found anyone who
knows our folks in Lancashire.
Since this last drive began we are
in range of guns all the time and
shells are bursting on all sides. We
wake at night at some awful explo
sion and turn over to go to sleep not
knowing how soon one of the shells
may come our way. Affectionately,
"Mary."
Louie Stephenson in a recent letter
says:
"We are In a new camp. After a
three days' ride on one of these toy
trains we arrived at our present
camp, the first Americans to pull in.
We live in barns, but are busy build
ing our barracks. Our camp is near
a beautiful little river and this sum
mer we shall enjoy bathing. The
front is not far away. We hear the
big guns all day. I'd like to bo in
the heavy artillery so that I might
send a big one to 'Bill.'
"We have seen several air battles
r and they are a fright—a lot worse
than a 'ball game.' The fellows make
an awful fuss. The Germans are
making their last 'big drive. We'll
give Bill 'enough' this summer.
Write soon. Louie.
