I know how sore your heart will be but its a grand & glorious death for a brave man to die in the way in which your nephew did, of course I know that it must have been an awful shock to you & his poor little wife, but I hope you will soon be able to look calmly on it.

We are getting very rough cold & wet weather, will be very glad when it
