Miller Irving - Saturday 28th October 1916

In the Field. 

My dear Mrs Thompson,

It is with great regret that I write you these few lines expressing my condolence at the loss of your dear Son and my comrade Joe.  He fell with the younger of the Wilson boys in the attack last Sunday.  His death comes as a great loss to one and all in the Battalion as he was one of its original 8th. 

May God grant you comfort and solace in this your great hour of need.  With deepest sympathy to all,

I remain, Ever you sincerely Miller
