I received 10 more letters from you, now, and they show me that you are keeping your faith and courage high and firm. I'm glad that you're well, and that Lillian and her children are also enjoying good health. I'm glad, too, that you have finally received my souvenirs of Rome. th Take good care of them because I value them a great deal. I am very busy, and consequently I cannot write to you often, but you should not worry in the least just because you're not receiving mail from me regularly. I assure you that I'm well, strong, & well protected by God whereever I go, but I'm always extremely restless to get home. No one can [illegible] me for thats because I'm so weary of this military life. Your son [illegible signature]
