Dear Ma,

I hope you are recieving [sic] these cards which we write every week. I am in good health and spirits and sincerely hope you are too. It is very hot in this part of the world so we don't do much work. These cards get harder to fill every week as we can only tell you how we are.

Please remember me to all my Pals and to Holloways. Hoping to see you soon

Your loving Son

Leslie
