		+	Two dozen years later, Jean Hurpin's daughter, Mariette Hurpin, sent a letter to Nelson. It is possible that there was other correspondence between the Hurpin and Nelson families between the 1918 and the 1942 letters, but these four were the only letters found. Note that because the following letter was sent from Vichy France during World War II, the envelope indicates that it had been opened and read by "Examiner 5370" in case it might contain material of interest to the intelligence community.
