Chick & people of Oyew

Chick & people of Oyew

We slept late this morning as we were out late last night. The French farmers were bringing us milk and eggs and bread. In the afternoon it started raining and it really rained. Florence came down to visit me. She is really a nice girl. I wish I was stationed close by here. It rained too hard to go see Florence tonight so we went up to the Boyer’s. We talked till way late. The Boyer’s are the richest people in town. He owns the shirt and scarf factory there. They gave us all a beautiful scarf. We had Champagne and cake. The best Champagne I have ever drank. It sure has turned cold.
