Henry returned from drilling and wrote a postcard on May 11 -
Dear Parents. Sat noon and is raining. And we did need some
of it for it was getting quite dusty, we returned on Wed noon, and are drilling
everyday. Rosa is working in the laundry here.
She was out here last night for I could not go up town on
account of beng on guard.
What are you doing this fine weather it sure has been fine.
We may not drill tomorrow its not yet sure I hope we do not have to. Best wishes to all
From Henry and Rosa.
