Nick went to the dentist this morning; he filled three teeth today and will continue to fix them until they are all okay. Nick received two letters from Letty. He is glad that she received the money order for thirty dollars and visited Gertrude. They are very busy in the Brest finance office with over 108,000 men passing through before they sail home. The Major, George H. Mallatratt, is making Nick the chief clerk so he will handle all the pay that goes through this office. The Major would like to make Nick a Sergeant First Class, if that happens he will be payed sixty dollars a month. They seem to be sending more men home every day and Nick hopes that he will be home soon and can marry Letty.
