To P.C., _September, 1915._

"I believe that if I could choose a day of heavy fighting of any kind

I liked for my draft, I should choose to spend a day in trenches,

under heavy fire without being able to return it. The fine things of

war spring from your chance of being killed: the ugly things from your

chance of killing."
