my pass book and see that it is dated Oct. 9, so perhaps it reached you later. If not be sure and let me know , I can have Cox's cancel it and send you another in its place. I haven't heard whether I am to go to Maitlecham Heath yet but expect to get my orders in five or six days time. Next Friday I am going to the Canadian Army Dental Corps in London and have them look over my teeth. I have a touch of pyorrhea near one tooth and I am going to have it treated before it gives me any troubles. You musn't expect me home for some time yet, for there is no real peace yet, and then I'm liable for service for six months
