Bramshott Camp Hants England 4th July 1916 Dear Friend Fred. It si a long time since I heard from you. So I am writing few lines to let you know. I am alive and kicking and still in Old England yet but I think our Time is drawing near. we were inspected by the King and Queen and lord French General Sir Archobald Hunter. so I beleave it is our last inspection. it was a fine sight to see about 20,000 Infantry and about 2000 Artillary the 67th was in it. they are a Pioneer Battn. I see all the Cariboo Boys in it; very often George Shaw. the Great and on 2yr is the same Old Card. Harry Brrley got a letter from Shroty Devitt and he was saying the people of Barkerville are saying they were glad they got Short of us as we were nothing but a pack of Bus. I dont beleave a work of it. I think Shorty is making it up. I do beleave there may be some of them. Saying it: you know. Your self who I mean. Fred. We may be home to tell
