My darling Daddy
Thank you for your letter. I am trying hard. Please send my love to everyone. I am glad to hear everything is quite all right at home, except about poor little [deleted] p [/deleted] Pom. We are getting our spikes soon. You will be glad to hear I came 6th in Divinity with 72 marks, and that I came 3rd in latin with 71 marks, that [deleted] it [/deleted] is much better isn't it.?. [sic] There are only 87 days left to come home. The weather is fine. It was a fine moonlight night last night. Our 1st XI is playing Queen's Hill girls and we have to play [deleted] 1 [/deleted] one hand and we are giving them 3 goals start, I don't know the result yet.
No more news to-day. With lots of love and
kisses from your loving
[underlined] son David. [/underlined]
