Letter to Rev Walters from A. W. Hanson

O Room

24th

Revd Sir,

            You must excuse me not writing to you before, but it has taken me till now to catch the work up, which was behind through me being away for my week’s leave.

            I must apologise for not coming up to see you, but practically all my time was taken up by people stopping me in the street, and calling at home, asking about their sons & relations.  I seemed to have very little time to talk with my parents and friends.

            Although so short a visit, I enjoyed myself very much and can now say I have pulled myself round and feel practically straight again.

            I have a few hours in London with my Uncle, and a very good journey back.

It may interest you to heard I have this week been granted my second stripe, which was anti-dated to the day we arrived out here, this will bring a nice bit of extra money from that date.

We are having rather a rough time now, and I expect it will be worse as the winter come on.

Must close now, hoping you are all well.

With very kind regards to the members of our service, Mrs Walters and yourself

Yrs obediently

Albert Will
