Dear Mr Leader - I cannot tell you how I feel for you in your great sorrow. It must be so hard so cruel to have said goodbye to him for ever & you will never be able to get over the void his death has made in your life - It does seem incomprehensible & so impossible to understand - he was such a sweet dear little chap I cant say anything to comfort you - how can I - time only can help you to say God's will is best, you can only think of his bright sweet little spirit & that he is safe from all the sins & sorrows of this world which to the happiest of us is full of trials & temptations & he may be saved & spared much sorrow & suffering. Well to you my dear friend there is only sorrow here & sorrow such as [yours] would be very very hard to bear.
May God bless you & give you some comfort is the prayer of your affectionate and sorrowing friend Mary Jeune
