Abstract
Content warning: This letter contains mentions of grief and suicidal ideation. Digital Collections provides access to these materials to preserve the historical record, but we do not endorse the attitudes, prejudices, or behaviors found within them. If you are struggling with suicidal ideation, please call or text the suicide hotline at 988. A letter from Albert Hafner to his fiancée Elizabeth Chandler in Massachusetts. Hafner continues to grieve his father's death and expresses panic at the fact that no one has answered his messages, including his brother in the United States. Hafner condemns the general condolences offered by other townspeople, but writes about his gratitude to Mrs. Keeney and the town drug clerk, who have both offered quiet, genuine demonstrations of support since he learned the news.
