  Monday evening.

  My dear Muriel,

  Just a line - which I must get off

  tonight - to say that my pass has been signed by

  Capt. Watson + has gone before the C.O., so that it is pretty

  certain, barring accidents, I shall get it. Thank

  goodness! Now about the ring. I shall want

  your size. Will you send me, as soon as possible,

  one of the silver rings you tried on & showed me in

  the train? Send the one nearest your size, + tell

  me whether it is too large or two small, + I will

  then get as near as I can. I remembered

  another thing today. What would you like for

  a present, my own? If you will give me some

  idea what you would like, I will do my best to 

  get it before, but I can't guarantee, as I don't

  expect to be out before Thursday midday at

  the earliest. Otherwise it will, of course, have

  to be later. Well now, bless your heart, I

  am closing, as I want to get this off certain

  & will continue a longer one to follow.

  With "all uv" Your,

  Stanley.

  My dear Muriel,

  Just a line -which I must get off

  tonight- to say that my pass has been signed by

  Capt. Watson & has gone before the C.O., so that it is pretty

  certain, barring, accidents, I shall get it. Thank

  goodness! Now about the ring. I shall want

  your size. Will you send me, as soon as possible,

  one of the silver rings you tried on & showed me on

  the train? Send the one nearest your size, & tell

  me whether it is too large or too small, & I will

  tern get as near as I can. I remembered

  another thing today. What would you like for

  a present, my own? If you will gibe me some

  idea what you would like, I will do my best to 

  get it before, but I can't guarantee, as I don't

  expect to be out before Thursday midday at

  the earliest. Otherwise it will, of course, have

  to be later. Well now, bless your heart, I

  am closing, as I want to get this off certain

  & will continue a longer on to follow.

  With "all love" Yours,
