ALTRINCHAM,
Cheshire.

Dear All,
Miss Thomas gave me the splendid news about Ronald early this morning and, believe me, all at home and at the office are delighted.
I thought first of wiring you, but wires give one such a shock at these times and you have had enough without me adding to them.
However, I [underlined] do [/underlined] congratulate you on your good fortune – you have been very brave and richly deserve your reward.
I cannot express quite what I feel, so will just wait until I see him.
Kindest regards,
Yours sincerely,
LANCASHIRE DYNAMO & CRYPTO LTD.,
A. Pollitt
CHIEF DRAUGHTSMAN.
