Letter 2

My Dear Sister & Brother,

I hope you

are proper good health, as I remain

so at present, except for one thing

and I am very pleased to receive

your Examiner, in which I

received very thankfully. I

want you to know that I have

lost my purse in which was

full of money,

and I want you to put something to and please

send me a nice big Parcel, as

I am completely done in now,

as I have neither money, cigarettes,

nor anything whatever, hoping

you will please send me a

nice sized Parcel, as you know

Mary we boys want looking after,

as we are in France

fighting for you at Home, so I

hope you will please send one

straigth away, from your

Loving Brother

Joe Wood.

Best Love to All at Home
