Dear Colonel
Permit me to congratulate you upon you very successful operations against the Enemy - of which we have only to-day a fairly full account.
As a Lawyer, I consider your Proclamation from Government House at Rabaul (in His Majesty's Colony of New Britain) to be a masterpiece - complete clear and concise - : He who runs may read it; and it makes good reading!May you go on and prosper.
With kindest regards (in which my brother joins) to you and the Brigade Major and all your officers.
Believe meYours sincerely
B.F. ParkerMajor
