Just a few lines to thank you for your very kind letter. I am thankful to say that I have not felt any bad effects from my terrible experience, but I grieve for all the poor innocent people that lost their lives and for those that are left to mourn their dear ones loss. Please excuse me saying more,  because I hate to think or speak of it. Trusting you and yours are well. All kindest regards.

Yours very sincerely,

W.T. Turner
