"My dear uncle,America in its turn is militarizing and calling its men to war with Mexico. There is general enthusiasm, and volunteers are responding eagerly. We are going to work double for the Red Cross now! And so many changes, and from here I hope to also have this entry if it really doesn't change; we doubt it. There will be little per month, misery upon us in Globe decisively! I hope that everyone, like me, is doing well.Best kisses, Lucie"
