My Dear Sir

I am writing to you to say how deeply and sincerely I and the whole of the 1st Canadian Division feel both for and with you in the loss of your gallant son who has just given his life for his country.

In such a loss as yours (I have somewhat similar experience myself) words of sympathy are apt to seem but bare and barren, yet I think that we all like to know that others feel for and with us. If this can be of any help to you I can assure you that you have the most sincere sympathy of myself and the whole Division

Believe me most sincerely yours
[?] [Alderson?]
[?] 1st Canadian Div
