The Commanding Officer
Sir,
I venture to ask if you can possibly give us any further information regarding Pte A.A. Smith No 142687 of the M.G.C. formerly 53rd Coy 18th Batt. He was posted as “missing” as from March 21st & we have heard nothing more.
Should you know anything beyond this we should feel so thankful if you will acquaint us.
His father is so very anxious about him.
Yours respectfully
(Mrs) J Smith
