we shall only get six days leave. I wish to
God it was tomorrow we were going on leave.
The food we are getting is not as good as
they gave me at the start. the tea we get is absolutely
horrid if I had the means I would never drink there
tea yo get very little meat and there is ten loaves
divided between 55 men so you can guess what each
man gets. Did you hear what sentence Frank
got . I don't think they will give him much. If he
is home when I go on leave I may look out:(sign no
Forms) About the Allotment I do not know what
to do. I told my aunt I would leave it to her of course
that could be easily remained would Frank get it
if I left it to him It would turn in useful to him
when he gets relesed for I suppose he will be sometime
out of work. Would it make any difference he bein
in prison. if not I will allot it to him I had a
letter from my uncle Frank You know
that girl that was down at the boat Mrs Mc Mahon
She wrote to me and said Anything I wanted I was
to ask for it but there is nothing I want I get what
keeps me in Ags and while I have them I am right
I will now Conclude with best love to
all at Home
I Remain
Your Affectionate Brother
James
