Dear Mother
Here is
another. As for any news of any of you
in Canada I know absolutely nothing as I have had no letters since I left
France. My mail has been chasing me all
over England from one Hospital to the other.
Well Mother I am able to get around alright
but don’t feel just quite right yet, however I guess I will be okay before
long.
At Christmas time Hess sent me a ring with my initials
on it and the other day I took it off to wash and lost it. I still have the little watch you gave me and
it is about the only thing that I have that I brought from Canada left.
How is V.V.
getting along as school it must be an awful change for her after going to
Brandon. However I hope this will be her last year at a Country School. Well Mother I will write you in a day or so
again and tell Dad to drop me a line or two.
The weather here is very damp and is somewhat like
that of France in the winter but I like it here much better as the people can
at least talk you own language.
Well Mother how do you and Dad like farming it must be
very lonesome after all the people that used to be around when you were in the
Hotel. I met Jim Rutledge here and
several of the Dauphin fellows, they were anxious for me to go over to see them
but somehow I don’t care for them. They
seem to be such villagers.
So Mother I will come to a close. Remember me to Dad
and V-V with love
Chas
