J., Nov. 13, 1918 - Dear Folks at home: I am feeling fine and hope you all are, too. I guess the war is really over, that is what our officers all say. If the Armistice had not been signed when it was I would have been riding across the ocean by this time. I saw Ira England yesterday. He was one of our regiment. He was on a ship that was going over when the news of the war being over reached them and they turned around and came back. He sure was some proud boy when they landed on this side of the world. Well, I went over last night and saw the great city of New York. We got a 24 hour pass from Camp Merritt. You have heard of those tall buildings in New York. I really saw them. I visited General Grant's tomb. It is grand and when one thinks of his life work it makes it grander. I also went over the Brooklyn bridge, one of the greatest brides in the world. I was down to the Atlantic ocean and saw all kinds of steamships. We had to ferry across the Hudson river from N. J. to the city. Am going to visit Jersey City, too. We had a fine trip and will tell you more when I reach home. Pvt. Hobert Spahr, Co. 48 Camp Merritt, N. N. - Hobert is a son of Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Spahr of Exeter. IOOF Log Book

Gladys taught in the one room school across from our house and rode her horse two miles across country to get there to teach it. It is said that Ben would lead the horse all the way over here when there was a lot of snow. We still ride on the old road and trails she used. It is farther to get there by auto as you can't go across country. About ten years ago a big Sycamore fell on the old metal and wood bridge and demolished it, but now there is a modern bridge there.
