she feels very badly about Fred, he was
our baby brother. We kept on lookout
for news and expected the Donaldson
bring news that all the boys were well
and some would soon be home, so
it was a great shock to us, but we
know that their is no blame on you
it was like many other tradgedys
of the north. We want you to know
that we feel very kindly to you on
account the very high regard Fred
always had for you. We sincerely
wish you success in any of your
under takings and adventures and
if we can help you in any way
let us know. We thank you for
your kind cable, also extend our
thanks to Mr Noice in effort he
made to reach the boys.
Would be glad to hear from you any
time Wishing you well.

Sincerely

John Maurer

P.S. My folks all send Kindest Regards.
