Dear Father
Have just got a mail from NZ today & one from you. Am glad to hear you are all well at home. Isn’t it sad about May Mitchell. I got an awful shock when I got a letter from Auntie to say she was dead & she used to write such decent letters to me & I was wondering what was the matter with her when I got word she was dead. Have to write
