  it is becoming to be rather chilly on a night

  time now. I think it is best to tell you

  we are of to make a big Charge this

  next month about the 10/th of Sept

  our Regiment and a lot more i hope i

  have the luck to get safely through

  again, so if you do not happen to hear

  from me you will know that there

  is something the matter. However i

  shall write you again before then

  I hope we get them well on the

  move this time and get them on

  the run and kill them by hundreds

  so that we shall be able to make

  them give in before the Winter sets

  on. They have not heard anything of

  Ernest yet at Goole have you heard

  anything yet. I wish it was all

  over as we are dead tired of it

  all but we shall have to stick to

  it untill we completly crush him.

  It makes one wonder though if he will

  get safely through to see home again when

  he sees a lot of his pals get killed every
