Translation:
Dear Nephew:
I am going to write you a few words to give you some news is order to tell you that we are all in good health and we do not cease praying for your happiness (safety) in this tough situation in which you are. At present, you demonstrate a great courage. Bravo! You tell us that your health is good and that you accomplish your duties as a Christian to the letter. That is most important. If the good Lord sees that you are devoted to Him, he will know how to reward you and will give you victory. Alway be brave toward God and with the prayer of all of your good relatives, we will b eable to have (see) you again someday with us and we will all thatnk God together for your good luck and you will be the hero of the Bonnevie family in this terrible war which can still last several months, but let us place everything in God's will and pray for peace.
From your Uncle Aime Bonnevie |
