In full: “My sincere and deep sympathy goes out to you in the death of your son, Captain Carrol H. Spain, while fighting for his country in my command. A brave soldier, his service showed a high order of devotion to the cause he considered just and great. We, here, mourn the loss of a gallant comrade in arms. May you find solace in the knowledge that he gave his life that others might live in freedom.” Some scattered mild lines of toning, otherwise fine condition.
