feel 10 years older and look like it to. This fighting life is all right But I wrote to Tom Brierly but never got any answer from him yet. dont know whether he is dead or alive But I hope he is the last mentioned. I seen Big Jim Kenny here & the same old Jim. I asked him the day for a joke To desert with me. and we will go to Ireland and join the Sinn Faner's. He look at me with surprise. I guess he though I was in earnest.
