Dear Niece -

With pleasure I now ans your most welcome letter which I received sometime ago should of answered sooner but have been moving around a lot latley and have had no place to write. Got a letter from Tom the other day dated Feby 26th which I will ans at first opperatunity.

The weather is very changeable here now it will snow one day and the next will be warm and bright like summer.

Oh say I got a couple of papers from Mrs. J. Minorgan a few days ago she wrote her address on the corner of one off the papers told me to write but I lost her address and haven’t been able to write she also said a letter and parcel was following but havent got them yet.

I got two parcels the other day one from Muriel and one from the Womens Instute of Sundridge

Say Galdys am sending you a leaf of a callander will you try and get one the same size for 1917 and send it to me.

You wanted to know when I though the war would be over well I dont think it will last much longer but owing to the strict censor on all letters I cant give you any particulars of how things are over here and so other news is scarce will say good bye for now. Love to all,
