My dear Dodie

Your most cheery letter received some time ago, and I cannot thank you enough for all your delightful letters.

Well Dodie, we have been having rather a hard time of it recently, and I am at present in an officers rest hospital with two slight shrapnel wound, am feeling fine though, and expect to rejoin the battalion in a couple of days, isn't too bad that I couldn't manage a blighty out of it.

Johnny Fordham will be home now, and he will no doubt give you heaps of news. Jim Fell is back again and passed through our little village yesterday.
