Dear Miss Russell
I am writing to thank you for nice letter of Feb 8th which arrived here a week or so ago also for parcels 6, 7 & 8 which I have not been able to acknowledge before as they had no cards in. Our Batt. formed in the North West but I myself come from Sask. our village we call Grenfell. I shall be pleased to hear from you at any time.
Best Wishes from Yours Truly P. Tappin
