Letter to Mrs Owtram from M A Wilkinson concerning the death of her son. No 2 Back Marton Street, Lancaster, 16 Sep 1916 Dear Madam Thank you very much for you kind letter of sympathy which I received this afternoon on the death of my dear son. He was indeed a good lad always willing to do what he could he went out again for the third time and had only been out a month. I am sure I can scarcely realize it. He was always so bright and cheerful he was the life of the Home. I do hope and pray that jour son may be spared to come back safe to you. If I could only get to know if he said anything before he died I should feel more reconciled but we can only trust to God and leave all in his hands. Thank you once more for your kind letter. I remain, Yours very Truly M A Wilkinson Accession Number: KO2490/130 Only a proportion of our collections are on display at anyone time. Certain items are on loan for display in other institutions.
