Dear Father
Thought I would write again in case you did not receive my previous letter as you would not know what part of the globe to write to.
Pleased to say I am quite well but shall be very glad when it turns warmer; have had several falls of snow since I have been here & the pipes are frozen at present so it is a bit of a job to get a wash.
Cannot stop to write more now. I shall be glad to hear from you.
Hoping you are all in the best of health.
With much love from
Your devoted
Son
