on the bright side for a time although it take a lot of doing. I went down to tell Grandad he was terribly upset I told him when I got more news from you I would let him know at once. I had’nt [Sic] been well all the week end just the date again had got me down. I hope the Boys are well & your [Sic] Mother & Father sorry I cannot write more now I feel too full. Just try to keep yourself going and hope for better news. XXXXXX
Love to all.
