Part of Archibald MacMechan fonds
Item consists of handwritten correspondence from Owen Bell Jones to Archibald MacMechan, dated March 24, 1931 from Aix-le-Bains, frankly discussing the effect that his prolonged physical struggles and the mental rigour of shell-shock have had on Jones's day-to-day life.
"I'll give you a secret & that is that we 'front-line' men, who have survived, felt too much, smelled too much, saw too much, heard too much, sensed too much, and, in the intense moments of many nights and days, especially nights, we, in our ardour, have burnt ourselves out."
