Thursday 5th of October 1916

Transcription Notes

Had another letter from Constance sending me a copy of Charlie’s letter telling the story of his having been wounded — a very wonderful but harrowing account, all the more poignant because of its extreme reticence. I pray that he may pull through poor boy, but I am still without further news of him.
