27.VI.16

Dear Judge Ferguson,
I can [indecipherable] writing I can only write this, that I am simply overwhelmed with sorrow, sorrow at your son's death, & sorrow in the terrible blow to his mother & you. By & by [indecipherable] to think of his sacrifice his duty & the honour he had already won, & get some comfort. Just now you can only bear the heart under [indecipherable] and we can only wish you both strength to bear it.
Yours in much grief
M.W.MacCallum
