Text of Letter

18th August 1915

May and Kath came over to see me today and brought me the telegram they received from the War Office about you. We shall all be very glad when we get further news. At present we feel powerless not even knowing if letters will be forwarded to you. The papers tonight speak of wounded in the fighting you were in, having been taken to Malta.

God bless you.

Much love from
Mela
