  <mods:abstract>A three-page copy of a letter from an unknown sender to Dirk J. Van Bommel dated August 20th, 1919. The sender informs Van Bommel about their experiences serving in the American Embassy in Turkey, including being a part of the Netherland Legation and taking charge of the Prisoner of War Department, and writes about their interactions with prisoners of war. They also report that they have recently arrived in Amsterdam and plan to leave for the U.S. in the next month. Dirk J. Van Bommel graduated from Springfield College in 1911. After graduation, he worked as a secretary for the International Committee in Constantinople. In 1920, Springfield College awarded him an honorary Master of Humanics. Two years later, Van Bommel was hired as secretary to the National Council in Turkey. He died on November 9, 1953.</mods:abstract>
