| Summary: | This document is a postcard from Paul C. Arnold from France that he most likely sent to one of his sisters, Stella Arnold White, Ada Arnold Sides, or Claud Arnold. This postcard was probably sent with other postcards or letters, as it begins and ends mid-sentence and has a hand-written number "2" at the top. Although it is undated, it was almost certainly written when Paul C. Arnold was stationed in France from 1918 to 1919. The postcard shows a street leading into the town of Is-sur-Tille with buildings and people visible and a caption of "Is-sur-Tille (Côte-d'Or) - Avenue Carnot - Entrée de la Ville". Paul C. Arnold writes about being transferred to a new location in France. The White family has ties back to the Arnold family through Stella Arnold White. Arnold family siblings Stella Arnold White, Paul C. Arnold, Claud Arnold, and Ada Arnold Sides stayed in close contact throughout their adult lives. Stella Arnold White married Leonard H. White Sr., an inventor who started the Birmingham Fabricating Company. During the First World War, Paul Arnold served in the military with the American Expeditionary Forces and saw action in France. Leonard H. White Sr. also enlisted during the First World War but was not sent overseas.
