Dear Sir
During conversation with Major General, Sir Charles Rosenthal, he mentioned that you were in possession of his private War Diary, and that some doubt had been expressed as to where it had been written.
I had the honour to be closely associated with general Rosenthal as D.T.M.O. 4th Australian Divisional Artillery, from about May 1916, to August 1917, and watched him on many occasions, writing up his private War Diary in the field. The General has requested me to intimate this fact to you, as a member of Headquarters' Staff, at that time.
Yours faithfully
SJ Fox
