Description

Two letters written by Helen Crabb to her nephew serving on the Western Front during World War One. The first informs him that she is about to depart for Paris in connection with her canteen work and expresses the desire they will be able to see each other. The second letter is concerned mainly with Helen's new found enthusiasm for Christian Science which she thinks can be used to protect other people from harm, including her brother at the front. The letters are accompanied by typed transcript copies.
