1916: 28th June - to Cathy


28/6/16

Dear C,

Just a line to say I am well. Please thank mother for her letter which I will answer at first opportunity!! It  is still wet and June is trying to break all records for disgusting weather. I met  Reg Bond and several old friends the other day. Heard from Cadouse plenty of news to follow.

Love to all

Dear Cathy

Just a p.c. to tell you I am back again with the batt: after nearly a month. The weather has improved and is now quite nice. I had a bath and a swim and change on reaching the old spot. All letters are delayed by my move so I’ll write to you in a day or two giving full particulars of news. I am well and fit. Hope you are all right and like the new work.

Love to all
