My darling Mother, Father + Sis

               Well dears I have been so busy reading letters for the last few days that I have not had time to write any. My mail from France is beginning to find me now in the last week I have had nine letters from home, now what do you know about that.

               To-day is Sunday and it looks like a pretty blue one too. Raining like the dickens in fact we have not had a day here for weeks that it has not been raining and it surely does spoil it when we only have such a few hours to get around.

               Last Wed. I went out shopping. Razor, shaving brush, tooth brush paste, pen and a dozen little things I have been borrowing. It sure made my cable look sick but I do not need money to spend, it was only to get those necessaries I wanted it for.

               I received a nice letter from C. Butler the other day. I wrote him and was asking about Murray. So that was his answer. I also rec’d a letter from Mrs. Pickrell of Bearwood and hope the rain clears away this afternoon so I can go out there.

               I do not expect to be here very long now. Last Friday the Major was here and marked all the Canadians who could move M.C.N. so I expect to go anytime now. The Can. in Hsptl. Sure do get a rotten deal when there is a push on.

               Annabel sent me two of the very best snaps I have ever seen taken on our verandah. I think the the best snap I have ever seen of both Mother + Dad and I would sooner have those snaps than a free trip to Scotland.

               Well dears I am expecting to be called down for church pretty soon. My arm is nearly healed now although it still needs dressing and will I think for another week.

               Remember me to all. With tons of love,

                              Bob

P.S. also read a letter from Carrie,
