“France”

 

Dec 18/17

 

Dear Marie;

 

Just a line today that I am feeling “fine as silk” in other words O.K. I'm hastily scribbling these few lines, because I won't (after today) be able to write for some time. So I take time to scribble a note, so that you wont think that anything has happened to me.

 

Well Marie, Winter has set in. Just at present its good & cold, which is 50% better than mud & wet. Eight days till Christmas which for a second time, I spend in the trenches.

 

How are “little Mamie” & Aunt Kate, Vic & Uncle Henry.

 

Give my love & best wishes to them all please

 

Pardon my abrupt note.

 

I'll close

 

Love

 

Joe

 

P.S. Enclosed find photo card of some of the bunch.
