With the exception of the description of the soldier, the following letter is an exact copy of one —ar.d only one among many hundreds of the kind—received by a big military record office in London: "Can yon tell nie whether my husband, No. 027309, Private Samson Blank, Shropshire Regiment, who was said to be killed in June, 1916, is still alive, aa I have heard a rumor he is? If so, it will be very awkward, as I have married again, ajid I will not know whether lam married or not. If .he is alive, am I entitled to the separation allowance agar*,?"
