Dear Dad

I received mother parcels with the flashlight you sent me and I want to thank you very much because its really comes in so handy now as it get just pitch black at night I am sorry about the other one but a part of the roof fell on it and smashed it to bits the same with the watch. well Dad I just got back from Glasgow and had a wonderful time the people treat you so swell up there. We were going to go out to Loche Lomen but it was foggy all the time we were their and the people said we woulden’t be able to see any thing. We when through the White Horse Whiskey Factory and they gave us all we could drink and I guess you can guess we were quite tight when we came out.

well Dad I had a very good Christmas and it so terribly good of everybody to send me all they did I never expected anything like it expecaly mother she sure sent me every thing she really thinks of every little thing I do hope you all had a very good Christmas I guess I woulden’t mind if I had been home but I think we will all be home by next Christmas well I guess I will close for just now [?] will again soon.

lots of love
Mac

P.S.
