I sent you a photo stand and I'm sending you some photos next week, so I hope you'll like them and I'll write again soon. Well mother, I'll close with love to you all, and hoping this finds you all well, with love from your affectionate son, Well mother dear, don't forget to give my love to auntie, and tell Marjie that Mervyn has a lot to say about her, and to write to me. I only wish that 1'd have been able to see you all too, but I'll still get there, as this can't last much longer, and it's sure to stop when I get there. I thought I'd get through all my money, and come home broke, but I've still got 4 pounds to go to France with, so it didn't need that to have a good time with. They didn't used to think much of England, but seem to have changed their minds. I had a few hours in London, going and coming back, while I made train connections, So I got about the best places, and walked down the Strand and Piccadilly, that I've often heard so much. I got there six PM and I left at one on the day I came away.

It was the quickest six days I've had in England. It was horrid here all winter, but this last three weeks have been lovely. I suppose you will be getting some nice weather now. Tell Joe I'll put her wise to something, and there will be some more teasing. I suppose he got pain and pleasure, eh, if Louise is still in Winnipeg. I was glad to hear Joe is over the operation. So they all seem to wait for each other and come together. Well mother, I had quite a pile of letters when I got back from leave three from you and I got Joe's too, and some from Bertha. Most of us Swan boys are going first out of the 226th. Our first draft went yesterday, and I'm in the second. But I was in luck's way, as I've done nothing for three days hardly, and we got time to get over it, and today we got medical inspection, and getting fitted up to go to France, as, I may go anytime now. Uncle, May and I went to Norwich Saturday and had a good time (as I had all the time), as they couldn't do too much for me, so I'm afraid it's rather spoiled me for a day or two after I got back to camp. Auntie and uncle are still at the school and May teaches at St. Mervyn is quite a boy too, and was bigger than I imagined. Grandma gave me a photo of them, and I think the baby looks cute. Winnie's husband is out of hospital and in Ireland now, I think. I had a letter from both of them, and I don't think they'll have to go as their employer holds them. I suppose you will have heard that Mark got his thumb crushed, and will likely lose it. I was sorry I couldn't see aunt Lily, but I couldn't manage a pass for both places, so I'll have to look forward to another leave. Well mother, you'll guess how busy I was, as they wanted to know about you all. Grandma doesn't seem to me to have altered a bit, and she is just the same always doing something. She sure was glad to see me, as they all were. I wonder if you got the letter I sent with Grandma's. You'll be glad to know that I got away for leave at last and enjoyed myself fine.
