I (seat myself) this morning to write you a few lines which leaves me in common health but am very much interrupted in my mind because I have not got my furlough to come home and see you before now but I am in hopes that I will get it before many days and, dear wife, if the Lord has spared you until now I am in hopes that you will have grace to support you in your affliction and if it is His will to call you to himself I will try and bear it the best I can. I am very sorry that I can't get to come home and be with you in your affliction, but I have to submit to the authority that has power over me and should we never see each others face in this wold again I am in hopes that we will meet in another where there will be no more parting of wife and husband and father and children but all will be peace and happiness in the Holy Ghost. I can't write much my feelings is so torn up. I want you to write me and let me know how you are getting on. So I close for the present.
Yours As Ever
