Literary activity is becoming less intense. Another blow to the writer was the death of the eldest son John in the First World War in 1915. He was killed during the Battle of Los September 27, 1915, while in a battalion of the Irish Guards. John Kipling's body was never found. Kipling and his wife worked in the wartime Red Cross, spent four years trying to figure out what happened to her son: he has always cherished the hope that, perhaps, the son fell into German captivity. In June 1919, having lost all hope, Kipling in a letter to the military command admitted that his son probably killed. In one of the "Epitaph of War" (1919) he wrote: "If someone asks why we are lost, answer them, because our fathers lied to us ".
