Dear Mother.

Your letter came to-day and Jessie's. I returned from London on Sunday night we had a very nice time the $10 will come in very handy just now. But there are not box coming through here they are holding them in Canada but maybe some will come soon. Art Moyer and Bob Action came to see me when I was away on leave but I will try and look him up. I received a bundle of papers from Grace to-day. We are just putting in the time now doing physical drill and bayonet fighting. As I wrote a letter to you while in London there isn't much to say this time so I will close now, With love to All.

Your Son Jay.
