I'm sorry I haven't written you soons but I know you'll understand. I had known several months that she was a pirsoner be3fore it was published in the papers. She was reported missing after the fall of Cooridor and I waited so long to hear. It was such a relief to know she was alive. I'm sorry to learn your son is missing and is a prionser to the Germans. I can write my daughter now but as yet I haven't had any word form her. This form I have also gives ways of writing prisoners in Germnay if you'd liek to have it I'll gladly send it to you. Hoping you have good news soon my prayers are that this terrible war will be over soon so our loved ones can come home agian. Thanking you agian for you r kind words. Sincerely Yours, Mrs. Emma C.
