- Description
- Waco, Texas. Aug. 2, 1944 Mr. Amon Carter Ft Worth, Texas. Dear Mr. Carter: About a month or six weeks ago I mailed you three letters from Oflag 64 in Germany telling us about the death of our boy. Mr. Carter, I am not sure I asked you to return the letter when I sent them but if I didn't I should have as our youngest boy has not yet read them, then too there is a copy of personal things which have been mailed to us so will need that. If you have read the letters will you please mail them back? I would appreciate it. I believe Mrs. Barron was the last to here any word. I hope you have had recent news from your son and that he is well. Sincerely Mrs. R.H. Torrence 2211 Barnard Waco, Texas.
