| Description | In this short letter Lodge comments on the 'slaughter' of 'young fellows' involved in military conflict during the First World War. Responding to a letter of sympathy sent by George and Elizabeth Cadbury, Lodge remarks on the death of a young man who he describes as having been 'full of life & humour', remarking that 'the family is very broken about it'. It is probable that the young man referred to was Lodge's youngest son Raymond who was killed in Flanders in 1915. |
