such as this who could resist from drop ping a line to his mother i am awfully tired but at the same time so terribly happy that i have got to get it off my mind somehow it came aa an awful blow this morning when we heard that all hostilities ceased at eleven oclook this morning all over the coun try you hear bunches of soldiers cheering i cant explain how i felt it was just like a cold chill running down my back it has been raining ever since but even that could not dampen our spirits in the least i dont know whether this letter will pass the censor or not bnt i have to write it and he can scatch out whatas necessary the labt week is the best i have spent since coming to this coun try we have captured miles and miles of very rich country with some large towns of course they were not destroyed by shell fire because once the attack was launch it was nothing but chasing the boohe yon should have seen the wel come those civilians gave us they could not do enough for us and even offered us their perfectly good beds to sleep in it was a regular treat and to hear them curse the germans and to see the look of joy and appreciation on their faces has more than paid me for my two years service in this country the only thing worrying mo now is whether it is real genuine peace or an armistice but we are following olose on bis heels and i hope we can send him clean across the bbine now it is perf ectly great mother whichever way it is we hear that all leaves are can celled now but canada and home has any leave beaten by miles for me well mother this doesnt seem muph a
