you will be looked after well

in the hospital. I do hope

you may get across to Enlgand

so that we may have a look at you.

We are very thankful too that 

it is only wounds, not loss of

limb. That would be far worse.

Nevermind the loss of things, that's 

better than loss of sight or limb.

We can soon replace all necessaries

Elsie will be posting cash to you

to-day. But the word will

be omitted so please make 

inquiries for it. She will register

it so it will reach the 

hospital alright & should it

not be delivered will come


 left side, page 3 of letter 


back to us. We posted you

a pcl. on Tuesday last, but

you will not get it now I 

suppose, so will miss ham

& cucumber. Nevermind, we

hope some other poor fellow

may enjoy it. I think you 

are in same hospital that Wes

was. Elsie says his was No. 8

The Base.

Glad to say we are all well

Will write again in a day 

or so. Shall anxiously  await  your

next letter to know how the

poor back goes.

  Your loving Mother
