My dear Mr. Irwin.

Well here we are again. trust this will find you all in the best of health.

As to myself going on fine but have not managed to get back to France yet, but hope to get another crack at Fritz before long. Have paid all my debts so far, but still there are others to pay.

The war seems to go on & will go on for quite awhile yet, but we are going to beat them bad, we have got to, till we get satisfaction & complete reparation for each & every particle of damage done.

Saw Billy Staves a few days ago & also Gill Walker they have changed quite a lot.

It will be three years the beginning of next month since I left Norwood & I would just love to pop in for a week or so & see you all again.

I heard from Mr & Mrs W.J. Buck & they seem to be all well & doing fine.

Must say au revoir with all good wishes & kindest regards

From sincerely yrs

Walter. T. Robus
