Jan 25th/18
Dear Elsie.
It seems an age since I heard from you or Maggie, but expect you are both still living at the same address? My […]-place of residence has changed lately, I was sent from the fighting area, via Boulogne to Torquay to await shipment to N.Z. & expect to go with the next lot, so will drop in for tea & cakes one of these days, hope to find you all well
Yours sincerely J.B.G.
