Augsberger expresses to Ardena how much she means to him, and says that "you are about the only thing I have to live for." He tells her about a guy here that he gets along pretty well with. He talk about their wives, and the guy's son. Augsberger says the son is "a cute little thing," and wishes that he and Ardena had a child. He writes that he knows she has said that she doesn't want any babies, so he won't talk about it anymore. Augsberger asks Ardena if she still wants to marry him when he returns, since he thinks she doesn't love him anymore. He asks Ardena to wait for him.
