Dear Folks:
Well I arrived at Flagstaff O.K. with one exception. Saturday morning I noticed traces of trench mouth again, but not bad - a few little sores on my lower lip like Kancor sores & a few inside. I went to the Doctor about 2:15 yesterday afternoon & he gave me some more mouth wash stuff, said he believed it wouldn’t amount to much - going after it so early then too it is just an outbreak of some of the poison left. The doctor I went to this time was Sechrist, as Dr. Fronske was out of town. They told me when I had it in April, (direct from poisoning - licking) that I might expect to have a slight outbreak again a time or two as it takes about a year before all the poison is gone. And so I am going to be careful.
The train was about 40 minutes late, the bridges across the Little Colorado had been weakened by a flood
