Fred Wilson
Dear Sir
Just a line to tell you that I am going to France on Tuesday next. I am very sorry I have not wrote of late as I have been in Training very hard, but you know the old saying that it is better late than never, I am going to join the Hood Batt in the Base Camp hoping to find all the old boys out there. Give my kind regards to all at Whitwick, I wish you to go and see Mrs Amos Allen 32 Silver Street, how is the Men’s Class going on I wish to be remembered to all of them, I hope this letter finds you all in the best of health, as I am A.1 befor I leave for France, I have been to Church every Sunday only when I have been on duty, that kept me away, I will now close with all best wishes from one of the old boys.
I am yours ever
L.S. Alfred John Wilson P.T.I.
I will write again as soon as I get the chance in France (So Good Day Sir.)
There is no envelope with this letter.
