  most enjoyable evening when we

  received a regular Prize Packet. During

  the afternoon a party of men we told

  of to get the Theatre ready & then every

  man had to pay one Anna towards the

  lamps. Then we took our Piano in the

  theatre for which every man has to pay

  2 Annas per week & then they had the

  impertinance to charge us 4 Annas for

  admission, if this is not keeping a dog

  and Barking yourself I don’t quite

  know what is. To day I think I have

  recieved the most letters & correspondence

  at once that I have ever received. By

  to days mail I got five letters & one

  newspaper I got news & Christmas Cards

  from all old & Dear Friends in

  England & also a Christmas card from

  Pa & Ma which I shall always keep

  & a remembrance of the Xmas I

  spent in Burmah.
