  such is our luck when we have our health

  its dearer than all the wealth we could own

  It is my earnest wish once more to spend

  a fiew good old nights around the cross

  that is if only I remain single whilst in

  this country and its a hard thing to do

  however we got to live in hopes.

  Now Jemmie I think I will come to a close

  for this time as its late and I need a 

  fiew hours sleep once on a while so

  I will say good bye and the best of

  luck be yours always Dont be two hard

  on the pubs I wished I had a good old

  bottle of sandymans three star port now

  this dam country is gone dry its all home

  made liquor we sample. Remember me

  to all at home when you write to them

  in bothe houses. good night once more

  with  fondest love from your ever dear

  old pal since childhood

                 Bill Mc Namard
