Diamond reassures Estelle that his communicating with other girls does not mean that he is "deceiving" her. He tells her that her happiness means more to him, now, "than life itself." He describes the ten days and nights that he has spent training in the jungle. He also asks her to send him a lantern of some sort that will operate on gasoline or kerosene.
