Dear mother. I recieved your Parcel on Thursday the 6th of July, it takes mail quite a while to get here, I didnt get the note inside yet, that has to be censored first, but I'll get it back in a few days, you dont know how glad I was to get the parcel, & how I enjoyed it. I hope they are all quite well at at Home give my love to Emmy & to maggie when you write your loving Son
