My Dear Stanley,
I received your Sunday letter
September 3rd this morning. But laddie it made
me ache to think that you should be washing
a floor. I'm afraid I should have said
'unprintable things' if I had seen you there
would have been no laughing at all.
Well we all think its a great SHAME after
you have been so ill. Poor laddie - but wait
till you get to England. We'll see if we cannot
make up a bit.
Another letter arrived from Norrie. He said
in it that he thought Norah was very foolish
to go again with George Lee; and that her choice
would have been in better taste if she had
selected Harold. He said the officers gave
him a splendid word out there for doing a lot
of work without making any song about it.
of course this started your mother off again
