GAULLE Charles de. L. A. S. "Your husband C.", Brazzaville, 13 May [1941], to his wife Yvonne de Gaulle (in Ellesmere) ; 2 pages in-4 headed Le Général de Gaulle. In the Belgian Congo. "My dear little wife, I love you and in the difficult mission I have given myself, I think of you very, very often. But I haven't had any news since I left and that's cruel. I'll be thinking a lot about Vonne on her birthday. I want you to know that, even if you receive this letter later. Things are going well here for our fighting block in Africa. But in the East, things are getting very tough. [...] I don't think I'll be able to get back to London for some time yet"... LNC, I, p. 1203.
