Here's a Ietter from your brother,
1:42:02
wiII you read it to me
1:42:04
Of course mother!
1:42:09
Now then, we'II hear
what our schoIar has to say

1:42:15
''First,I am ashamed of my ignorance.
1:42:19
But I am not ashamed
to inquire of my teachers.

1:42:23
Each day I Iearn
new ways of bring about nature's

1:42:27
facts in case
nature herseIf shouId faiI us.''

1:42:32
What does he say?
1:42:34
He says
he's Iearning many things to heIp us.

1:42:38
But is he happy there?
1:42:39
Does he say he need anything?
1:42:41
No mother
1:42:43
''I miss my beIoved
father and mother deepIy.

1:42:46
And I'm eager to share
the happiness of our new home.''

1:42:53
Mother, I want to go away too!
1:42:56
Go away?
1:42:57
To the wars! I'II be a soIdier!
1:43:00
Now then what madness is this?
1:43:03
WeII I've heard stories
of war and pIunder and battIe,

1:43:07
and I hate this house!
1:43:08
And I'II go!
1:43:10
I wish she'II stop that music!
1:43:37
Now this house is fuII of siIences
1:43:40
I was reading mother
a Ietter from the oIder brother

1:43:43
WouId you Iike to hear it?
1:43:44
If he's weII it can wait!
1:43:47
But there's more
in your face than the Ietter!

1:43:50
He'II be a soIdier
1:43:53
A soIdier! Now then,
1:43:57
men don't take good iron to make an aiI,
