Bernice, La. Feb. 27, 1915
 
Mr. J. D. Hendrix
Farmville, La.  
 
Dear Dave,
 
Yours of 21st received yesterday and I hasten, with pleasure to reply and comply with your 
just request, only a few of us in Co. E. are remaining –J.B. Hughes was buried here on the 
18th of January, W. White, Robert Roberts, Alanza Greene, M.B. Phillip are all I can call 
to mine as living, our War was only a skirmish compared with the European War.

Dave; come over to see your old Capt, I want to tell you how grand your looked while carrying 
our Regiment Colors. Dr. Roberts lives at Ruston, Bill White, Cedarton or Unionville, I don’t 
know where Phillips lives and he may be dead. Say, any service I can render to is yours, just 
by the calling ---- a line of truth.
 
May the good Lord Keep you and all yours.
I am, yours truly 
Ex  “Capt. Wm R. Roberts.
