1943 French cover and letter in neat script to LaPorte, CA from Peter. Perhaps he was a student in a monastery as there are religious tones in both enclosed letters. He cites a Spanish Missionary priest who was killed in China for unknown reasons. Thought to be in the unoccupied zone of France, there was a skirmish between Nazis and French Resistance July 6-7, 1943. The Nazis would have searched the monastery for weapons and left alone.
