#814153 Pte. Donald Ross
187th Batt
C.E.F.
1898 ~ 1918
"But the reason I am asking for money is
because we don’t get enough to eat ..." Donald Ross, England 1 Aug. 1917
Aug 1 1917
Dear Dad,
…I am going to cable you for $50 and don’t think that because I mentioned
poker that I am gambling for such is not the case. The last poker I played
was on board ship on the way over. But the reason I am asking for money is
because we don’t get enough to eat and the money we get paid barely keeps one
in smoking tobacco and writing paper and stamps as I am writing continually.
As far as I can see from now I am going back to the line before long so I
want the money to live fairly good while I am able.
Your Loving Son Donald.
