“It is with the deepest regret that I have to write about your son’s death.
It happened this morning about 1030 when he was shaving.
He had been up most of the night.
A splinter of a shell came through the window of the room he was in, and killed him instantaneously.
We all deplore his loss. We have always been a happy and merry family, and he was one of the merriest.
Always cheerful, willing to do anything and everything at a moment’s notice, and never down-hearted no matter what work had to be done. In him I lose a very capable officer and a great friend.
May I sympathize with you in your great loss.”
