Y.M.C.A. Mediterranean Expeditionary Force

31st July 

My dear Father

I got back from leave and found a whole heap of letters waiting here for me - and 'here' is a much better place than the one in which I left the regiment down the valley as we are back near old Richon and living on grapes, melons and tomatoes. Its great I can tell you.

Your letters were dated 5th May and 30th May and that 'Power of Attorney' came too and I have got is [it] signed and fixed up and am sending it back under registered envelope today. The Adjutant says that under Kings Regulations the one power of attorney I wrote out should do but a point might be raised that the A.I.F. does not come under K.R. but I think it should on active service. Still it is just as well to have the correct form.

25/9 seems a fair price for the ewes you sold
