Carson tells his family he is anxious for the war to be over and wishes he could send more money to aid the family. He informs them that he has saved very little due to spending most of his earnings in England. Carson notes that he is living a better life in France than the one he lived in England. He also adds that he has been thinking about the passing of their mother and asks Carrie to warn Jarvis not to stray like he had. It is also noted that if he is to fall in battle that she and their dad will have his earnings as he is doubtful that he will make it home.
