France, September, 1918.
“Dear Miss A. A. L―,
“It gives me the greatest of all pleasures to write and thank you very much for sending me the parcel, containing the wonderful ‘Message from God’....We have experienced some heavy fighting, and, oh, how glad and happy I am to come through it all. I am sure He has preserved and protected me. What a grand assurance it is to know one is saved by His grace. Our present Chaplain has just won his third medal, which is the vs. He is such a nice gentleman, and lives up to his position..... He delights to be in the line with the boys, talking to them about their souls, and if they are prepared. He has been where no man would go; his one aim is to die on the battlefield.... I must now conclude.. God bless you.
I remain, Yours in Christ. Pte. S. R. H.”
