| Summary: | In the letter McDonald sends Tallulah a picture of herself, which he found in a German dugout. He also discusses his background, the work of his company, and the war-torn French countryside: "So far to date, we have not been in any real pretty part of France so there am unable to tell of the natural beauties that are here. All we can boast of is, seeing the wanton destruction practiced by the Boche, gaping shell craters that surround us on all sides, trench systems and the incessant whiz and whistle of big shells. Truly not a [sic] wonderful a sight as some people think it is. After the war all these sights minus of course the whizzing of the shells will be real sights for the tourist to see, but when you are in constant contact with it day in and day out it becomes, not a novelty, but rather a nightmare."
