I see Stewart Walker was wounded
France or thereabouts

My dear Mrs. Jack,
Just a few lines to tell you I received the parcel & to thank you so much for the contents. The silk sweater is just great, beautiful & in the absence of pyjamas I sleep in it & it is O.K. The muffler is a joy too & the socks too, although they did cause rather a sensation. It was sweet of you to make them for me & I simply can't tell you how I appreciate them. The book came also, I haven't read it yet, I've been so busy here. We are suppose I think to be resting but I still have to go hard. It's a sweet place & we have good quarters but the weather is rotten worse luck. I could stay here for ages but we are almost certain to move off again before
