Dear Sister,

  Thanks for your letter I am alright and I have had

another letter from Albert, the same time I had yours.

Don't be frightened to write to me, you can write as

much as you like. they don't open your letters.

I am sending this for a little keepsake the words

mean (bring happiness) tell our Winnie I will 

get her one later on. Has she got a new job yet

I had a letter from our Tom he is alright

I bet he looks (knit) in his bell bottoms

I hop you are alright. Cheer up from

your brother, Dick
