To Day is supposed to be a general

Holiday In India nobody is supposed

To work but our Holiday had to be

Spent in scrubbing & cleaning out the

Barrack Room & after we were all

Marched into a stuffy Room to listen to

A Lecture on health so we had a great

Holiday, but never mind. It will make up

For it to morrow when we get all our

Letters.

Dec 18th 1914

To Day we were up in good time but

Were told that Letters would be delivered

After Parade 1-o-clock, & there was a

Great Rush after it was over for them

But what a great disappointment every

Body in the Company Had Letters & papers

Except me & I was the only one left out

What a strange world this is, it is
