Abstract
A letter from Albert Hafner to his fiancée Elizabeth Chandler in Massachusetts. Hafner compares Chandler's thoughtful letters to his friends' generic condolences. He says she is the sole reason he does not feel alone and only further confirms that she is the ideal match for him. Hafner hasn't heard from home, but receives a message from his brother John, who expresses his shock and grief at learning of their father's death. John says he also does not know whether they should return home or not, but they should be prepared for further instructions. John tells him their brother Joseph is in Texas. Hafner and his father previously agreed that no one would give Joseph any more money, but this knowledge informs Hafner that Joe went to John in America and appeared to get money out of him regardless. Hafner says he wishes to know no more.
