“Darling, I am sending you this to remind you of a year ago next Wednesday, the happiest day of my life and I hope to spend another happier day with you soon when I can hold my darling sweet wife to my heart and know we are united for life with a love that has been tried by separation but which never waivered even in the darkest hour and thou the time may seem long yet before we are united, we can look forward to that happy day of reunion and know that nothing could separate our love. Although our lives may be separated for a time, you are dearer to me than ever before so accept my deepest love and devotion to my only little sweetheart on this our Wedding Day. George”
