What is an example of a letter written from a french soldier to his wife in 1755?

My Dearest Marie,

I write to you from the battlefields of 1755, where my thoughts are consumed by the hope of returning to your loving arms. The war has taken its toll on me, but the memories of you keep me strong. Please know that my love for you burns brighter with each passing day.

Yours forever, Jean-Luc
