Martin, the younger son, -wanted to take his brother's place, but was rejected ,as a pilot. He was accepted as a physical training instructor and in the eoarse of rigorous swimming exer- cises, contracted an infection, which developed into nephritis. He spent a year in the hospital before his -dint-large. At that time the doctors gave him six weeks to live. He lived nearly ten years, in and -out of bed, in and out of hospitals. In Durham, North !Carolina, an- der the care of Dr, Walter -Kemp- ner, he improved at times, enough to have up to six hours daily of normal life. He even worked with fellow-patients having speech dif- ficulties. To help these men and partially support himself gave him a great sense of accomplishment. He wanted passionately to write and !began this journal, packing it with impressions, expressions and ideas that he felt would be useful to him as a writer.
