His spirit cried out in distress. He
was in great trouble in deep darkness
and could see no light. He asked my
wife il she would help him.
Lady Lodge asked him how. He
said he had done great wrong while
he was in the body. He said that he had
left some letters from young woman
and lock of her hair in his kit when
he was taken into the heareaftcr. He
wanted them taken out before they were
sent to his home. He wanted to save
his wife the pain and distress of find
ing them.
Gives Name of Woman
Lady Lodge asked him who could
do this for him. She mentioned several
names and the young officer cried out
that they would not do. Finally he
said that one woman would do. She was
n sensible woman, not a relative, to
whom he was willing the story should
be told The woman communicated with
general headquarters and the kit was
gotten. There in it were found the let
ters and the lock of hair. The wife was
saved from the pain of finding them. /"
