for her letter - I roared over her description
of yourself. I'm going to try +
bring both Ja. + Ju. some little things over
So they thought we were "cool hands"!
Well, lassie, I think it was because we
had faith in, + therefore no fear for our future
- knowing what we thought about each other.
Wait till I see you in the violet velvet hat
- just you wait! Well, lassie, we ought
to be thankful for our luck. There are
3 in our marquee now, none of whom
have seen Blighty for the last 12 months
- + been in France all the time! I've
been looking at the coves on the fir trees
here + They are as big as this sheet of
paper. I saw a great Tit, a martin.
Well, lassie, I'm eagerly looking forward to
seeing your face in the next few days.
Give my love to all. With all my love
+ just one as an earnest of what's to come.
Your loving husband,
Stanley.
