Just a line or two to say I received
your parcel last night and T thank
you one and. all.
I haven't lost a parcel yet that
has been sent so far.
It is a very warm day and the
roads are dusty. Some places the dust
is six inches deep. an& when you drive
through it, "boy you can't see the
lorry ahead of you.
Well we got the Germans on the
run at last and it will not be long till
you will see us walking the streets
of Clinton again.
Will close now and thanks a lot
for the parcel.
Yours Sincerely
Cecil.
