Dear Mr Jackson
We were pleased to receive your letter telling us you were [underlined] all [/underlined] recovered from your thrilling experience of [underlined] [underlined] “that Monday A.M.” [/underlined] [/underlined] We were only too delighted to be of any assistance to you, it was indeed a pleasure to help you, (if you could call it help,) it was our duty, we owe a lot to all you gallant air-men[sic]. Please give our kind regards to the other air-men [sic] who was with you & if you do decide to come down at Rudston [underlined] in the future [/underlined] please call at “The Forge”, where you are welcome. The other day a labourer brought us the enclosed maps found in a field & as it had your address I decided to post them to you, otherwise I should have sent them on to the R.A.F. Station at Driffield.

Again I assure you we were both my husband & self delighted to have been any assistance to you.
My husband joins in with me in wishing you [underlined] [underlined] all [/underlined] [/underlined] “Good Luck” & the best always,
