    Content Description

    This collection contains two correspondence written by Pvt. Stanislaus Borkowski, AEF to his family during the First World War.
    Of particular note: in one letter, he writes about the possibility of him dying but says he would rather die in the service of this "good cause" because it is "better than going 'west' naturally because when doing so one passes out with out any one benifitting by the demise."
