Mr. S.S Ellis,

Weno, Alberta,

CANADA.

Dear Mr. Ellis:

On behalf of the Officers, N.C.O's and men of the Canadian Light Horse, I wish to express our very deep sympathy with you in the death of your son from shell fire during the last few days. His Squadron Commander has arranged to have a nice cross made and will have it erected at an early date. His Troop Officer is also writing you with full particulars about the sad event.

I wish to put on record the good work done by your son while with the Regiment. He will be very much missed indeed by all ranks. You have my deepest personal sympathy.

Very sincerely yours,

L.Holsom. Leaunand

Lieut Col.
