Extracts from this letter
"By Jove things did hum when I got your letter today. ... Things as far as getting and giving news down here have been absolutely flat for days - weeks as it seems."
"All this week our company have been shooting 'eyes out' getting as much practice as possible. I did fairly well and was well up in the average ... I shall send my scoring book home and then you will be able to judge for yourself my results..."
"I have just returned from a hot and a cold shower. We have here now a proper up-to-date arrangement for so doing ... The change is very sudden but very good."
