Description
March 12th Amon dear, I received the telegram from Mrs Deakins yesterday about Amon Jr. and I tried to reach you by phone but couldn't get through. This AM it was in the N.Y. papers. I finally wired you to the club. I can't tell you have I feel how terribly everyone feels+ how much we think of and admire Amon Jr. My heart feels very heavy tonight and my thoughts and sympathy are with you. I wish I could help that there would be somthing I could do_ but you feel so helpless. I shall pray God for his safe return and the return of your happiness and peace_ May God watch over him and help you in this terrible hour_ With lots of love and a heavy heart Electra.
