Tuthill, Emmett P.
letter - handwritten

 

 

"New York, 2/14/20
Dear Sir,
I am filling out the card you asked me to, but am
sorry to say I was unfortunate not to see the other
side so, I don't think my war history worth any notice
Besides, Patchogue people disrespect me so, I don't
think anyone cares to see my name amongst the rest.
Thanking you just the same.
Emmett P. Tuthill"
