   I hope you are in 

your usual good health, &

that you will write me soon.

Now & again within the last

few months I've sent local

p.p.c's picture post cards  to your mother, I

hope to have the pleasure of 

looking at them before long

in the albums at East

Main St.

            Well, Cheerio Willie, 

& the best of Luck again.

            Your old Pal,

                                Willie

P.S. 17.11.18 Your Lr of 15.10.18 just to hand, but no

letter with photo has yet reached me.

     The news about Angus's death is extremely

sad & my deepest sympathy goes out to your

mother, his wife, & the whole family in general.

I didn't see or know him very much, but 

what I did see & hear of him didn't

fail to give me the best impressions

of him.  His case is especially sad when

one thinks of his quite recent marriage

& of the fact that he was 'over there'

only 3 months & another month would

have seen the fighting through.

Thank God you hadn't got across by
