dc.description.transcriptionMarch 26 Dear Mr Carter: Want to extend my deepest sympathy to you in your wait of anxiety to hear if Amon is a prisoner but it is my sincerest hope and desire that you are and will hope this. I know it will be dreadfully hard for you but so many all along reported missing have shown up to be prisoners and our prayers for encouragement for you and that it wont be long until you will hear that he is safe, a prisoner. The pecans are deliciously flavored - we are enjoying them. With all good wishes to one who has done so much and been 'everything' in the world to us. With earnest hop and expetancy may we all be able to help you. Gratefully, Pearl Lela Hough
