The following partial letter appears in the July 12, 1918 issue of the Lebanon News. It was written by Carter C. Self.
"Since writing you last I have been getting along fine.
I was wounded in the neck, in the right arm and hand. I think my hand is the worst. Anyway, it will be several weeks before I can write with my own hand. Please don't worry about me for I am having the best of care taken of me, and intend to get well and come back to you.
Lovingly,
CARTER"
