Dear Mrs Holloway,

Words fail me how to explain who I am, but I was in the same camp in Italy as Don Taylor, and Les Pickford, and I am anxious to locate Les, as Don, told me that he meets Les, on each October the 13TH, But Don has now sailed to Burma two weeks ago, Don asked me to meet Les this year, which I am delighted So if you will be kind enough to forward my address on to Les, or would you be so kind and send it along. I trust that one day [inserted]we [/inserted] will meet as Don told me all about you all at 41.

Yours Faithfully

G.W. Fennymore
