Lancs. England. May 24th 1941. My dear Douglas It is many days since I wrote to you. There has been very much to do with having three houses to settle about & I’ve had a lot of travelling to & fro. not to mention the actual removing & no Mrs Lord to help. Still we are beginning to feel more like home here, with a few carpets down & the garden, which is really pleasant, tidied up a lot. Well, love, I seem to be with you all the day through, wondering, always wondering about you. Your cable arrived Thursday morning May 22nd & brought much relief & joy. I wonder what will happen to the many letters sent to the address at Le Kef. I had been sending 3 letters a week by Air Mail & now I’m wondering how much (or how little) news you have received. From the dates, given in the last letter, of letters received it looks as tho’ only about a 4th part of the letters are reaching [page break] you. Of course they were only newsy letters with no really [one indecipherable word] news. We shall always try to reach you by [deleted] I [/deleted] cable for any really important messages. We were wondering who paid for the two cables from Medea. Are you allowed to send them or are they sent & paid for by the authorities & would it help you in any way if I send my messages with a pre paid reply? It was funny about your birthday cable, sent from Burnley. I wrote the full address Medea Algerie but the girl crossed off Algerie & the charge for the cable was 9/9. Yesterday morning when he brought the letters the post-man knocked at the door to collect 3d which was due for the inclusion of the word Algerie. I intend to send you another cable next week - just to keep in touch until you begin to receive letters again. Auntie Maud Calvert spent the day here on Thursday. Of course it rained, but we had a grand time. Auntie bought me lovely tulips & anemones. Dad & I went to Colne to see her off by bus. Did you get my letter telling about your B.S.A.? Now I must away to do my shopping a new experience & we are a long way from shops. 2d bus from town - very high on the hill. Pleasant situation. All our love. Mother & Dad. 755052 Sgt. J.D. Hudson.

Transcription Text transcribed from audio recording or document June 15th 1941. My Dear Mother & Dad, I am very pleased to have received your Air Mail letter to-day, dated May 24th, and to learn that you have settled down in your new home, & that things are becoming ship shape again. I hope the strain of moving etc. will not prove to have been too great. I realise what a lot of work is entailed & without the help of Mrs. Lord it is not difficult to visualise just how busy you will have been. I now wish to suggest that about every 10 & 14 days you send me a letter by Air Mail addressed to:- REV. MR. H. W. CUMMIN: c/o. T. W. WARREN ESQ: BRITISH POST OFFICE: TANGER: Do not put my name on the envelope at all, but on the back clearly mark your own name and address. This will be sufficient to enable the letter to be sent on to me. Might save a little time this way. Now to relieve your anxiety about the letters I have received from you. You say that you think only a fourth part of the letters you have sent have got through. On the other hand I have received forty-two (42) letters in all from you – ten by Air Mail. Taking into consideration the fact that there was a big gap in March when Mother was ill, and a gap in May on account of your removal, I think you will find that nearly all your letters have arrived, that is assuming you have written approximately every 3 or 4 days. here is a list of the dates of your Air Mail letters received so far:- Feb. 20th. – gap – April 9th. 11th. 14th. 17th. 22nd. 25th. 29th. May 2nd – gap – May 24th. I have also [page break] received your cables which are most useful links. The cables I sent from Médéa I paid for myself out of the small allowance received from the Consul. That is the reason they were so short. Your suggestion of sending a pre-paid reply with a future message is excellent. At the present I am allowed to send cables and consequently could make good use of a pre-paid reply. If it does not work out unnecessarily expensive, I could send you a cabled reply by this means provided I still have the right to cable from here. Reading this paragraph through – it does sound disjointed, I seem to have repeated myself unnecessarily. I must be getting old – and come to think of it the quarter century is now well & truly reached. You also ask about the BS.A. Yes I have received all the news about this in a much earlier letter. There is not much to report from here. Played football yesterday & finished off my right boot. I shall not be able to play again until it is repaired – if – because it is in a bad state. Still do the morning P.T. & walks. There are a lot of tortoises about here, we see a lot when we go out. This afternoon, I have permission to go into the town with a guard. I shall try & get a drink of tea. Have not tasted tea for over two weeks now. I miss it most of all. Well now I will say good-bye again. I hope you will keep safe & well, & I wish you much better luck for the future. My thoughts are always with you.
