"I still like my work [as Red Cross worker tracing missing soldiers] and do the motherly to Tommies as you say, and I hope in one case the brotherly [...] I lent him books by you, and though he stuck in The Meaning of Good as ""unlikely to help"", John Chinaman he liked so much as to read part of it aloud to the rest of the ward. ""They said What do you want to read that for? I said it"s very interesting about the opium as showing what Europe"s like. They said But what does it matter? Who cares?"" [...] he grew up in respectable circles in the west of England".</ptr>
