This is a letter from Private F Murphy to an unknown recipient. In the letter Murphy
pleads with the recipient to get his children back, although it is not fully clear
where the children are one can assume that that had been put in a home while Murphy
was off fighting because the family had little money. Murphy describes how he and
his wife wish to have them back now that he is home and he asks for the recipients
help in the matter.
