Joe - Monday 21st August 1916

Dear Mother,

I received your parcel safely and thanks for same.  It got rather a squashing but the melon was all right and also the cake.  I received about 6 papers yesterday, the photo of Billie is a good one, anyone knowing him will easily recognise it.  I heard F. Wilkinson had been down on leave, he will probably be back now.  Jack Brewster got a four days' leave - two at home.  Janey will probably have seen him.  I am expecting you hearing anytime that Billie is a prisoner.  Syd is all right.  Yes, you can send me another pair of socks and then I will be set up again. 

Well I must close, Hoping this finds all well. 

Your loving son Joe.
