  to be separated from me at the very time when we most

  need to be together! Still, I keep bolstering up with the

  fact that I'm lucky to be in England with you at this

  time. Many thanks for the letters + also for the parcel etc

  which arrived this afternoon. It's just like Ethel to name

  the puppy as she has done, but it's a very good name

  + quite in the leading doggy style! I hope my orders

  come this week - yes they will solve everything,

  lassie!

  Poor Norrie! It's rotten for him - altho' I'm not surprised

  Tell Julia I'm surprised at her - it's so common just

  now! I hope Frank does not get redder. However he

  may be steadied a bit by so many accidents occurring.

  I don't find the blank cheque which you say you

  enclose, so I take it you forgot it. It's been another

  bitterly cold day, + I hope it's a bit warmer tomorrow

  as we have to go to the ranges. Everyone who has not

  already done so, has to fire with the "Ross" rifle which

  has just been issued to us. Ripon must be awfully

  quiet as its out of bounds for all troops. We missed

  our Saturday coal issue for the hut, + as there is

  no issue until tomorrow we've had no fire since

  Friday night. Well, good night my lassie, + keep up

  heart. Give my love to them all - + with this comes

  an extra big c-o-a-o. If there is anything you

  want settling, let me know - bless your heart!

  Your loving,

  Husband
