#814153 Pte. Donald Ross
187th Batt
C.E.F.
1898 ~ 1918
"If he hadn’t have gone to France we would have been married the day before he
was called..." Alice Folkes, England 29 Oct. 1918
Oct 29 1918
My Dear People
How can I write of this sad event? I never could understand why he should
love me so devotedly. He says I was a good woman but I am no better than
anyone else. How is it that all the best are taken first? A straighter or
more honest man one would never find than your dear son. I am sure he was
loved by all who knew him. The love your son gave to me will never be blotted
out as it seemed too far above the ordinary kind of love so pure and clean.
If he hadn’t have gone to France we would have been married the day before he
was called.
My fond love,
your little girl that was to be
Alice Folkes
