THE YANCEY RECORD "
LETTERS FROM
MEN IN SERVICE i
• Record: I have been re
ceiving a copy of the paper i
each week for the past five
months, I really appreciate^
; it as it is lots of company to 1
a soldier who at times gets
a little homesick. I’ll admit
that I’ve been a little home
! sick at times since I’ve been
serving in the army.
I would like to say hello
to all the folks and friends
jback home and I will close
1 1 wishing everyone the best
• of luck. My new address is:,,
Pvt. Paul F. Deyton, Co."
1 C 309 Inf. APO 78, Camp
Pickett, Va.
Record: While in the
• States I received your pap
-1 er each tveek and surely en
joyed reading it as it was
one way of getting the I
news from home. I got lots!
i of letters but all the news;
: can’t be expressed in letters
- Since I came here the pap
• ers haven’t been reaching:
1 me. I sure would appreciate!
i' it if you would send the !
• paper to my new address, j
I Maybe you would like to
know where I am in New
• Guinea. If people like plen
■ty of hot sunshine, they
can come to New Guinea.
I don’t particularly like
the place but if it takes
being in a place like this to!
!get this war over I am will-;
ing to stay. The only way'
ito be contented in a place
! like this is to work all the
time.
There are lots of guys
here from N. C. but I hav
en’t seen any from Yancey
yet. We have Chapel ser
vices here more often than
we did in the States.
Pvt. Arnold E. Higgins,
c. Postmaster, San Fran-,

[' Record: I would like to
i give you my change of ad
dress which took place re
,‘cently so you can send the
; pajper. Believe me, I’ll j be
; glad when 1 start getting
the paper because papers
I and books are about a
• thing of the past over here.'
jl I am somewhere in New
i! Guinea and though there
. are many better places to
• be, this isn’t bad. Much bet-j
ter than I expected.
' ' About all I can say is, you
folks back home keep the
home fires burning because
we will be back some of
these days, and write us be
cause we are always glad
IN MEMORY
In memory of our dear mother, Mrs. Martha J. King, who
departed from this life seventeen years ago July 14, 1927.
It was a peaceful morning hour
I watched a rising sun
Rise slowly through the brilliant clouds,
Proclaiming her life was done.
1 turned abound, to see her face
A sheet of dove-like gray,
On which there »h<on« a golden light—
As bright as ifny day.
And even as we commemorate
The day our mother moved oh
Grim tears rise to strike us down,
But we know her victory’s won.
There was only sorrow in our hearts;
There was no room for fear
But hew we wish someday again.
To fc-« our mother dear!
By Mrs. Bill Shepherd, Swiss, N. C. 1
