right side, page 2 of letter
The weather down here is glorious
I could not wish for better,
Also we have plenty of sports
and I am getting very keen on
them in fact I won't miss anything
if I can help it, people
who have visited Grantham call
it the flower garden of England
and it is so, for no one can call
it any different. You can send
me a little money if you can
spare it, because I can't get down
unless I have 10s8d ten shillings eight pence which is only
half fare it is 137 miles from
Lpool Liverpool , whatever you do don't
go to any trouble to get it
left side, final page of letter
for I would sooner stay where
I am than get you in to any
trouble, I will see you both if
I can get down, this is all I
have to say at present hoping
you will write soon.
I remain,
Your loving Son,
Jim
