My dear Mother
We had a very good trip down, there were only four in the carriage all the way down from Rylstone. One of the boys from my school came down in the same carriage with us. Geof told me that I am moved up into 4B. The clouds came up just before dinner and it is raining now. There was a thick fog at Blackhealth. Headly Honkerford is down here now, he is going to the Kings Scholl I have 5 pigeons and Aunt Katie has 2 cats, 5 kittens, Uncle Frank met us at the warf. We had a cup of coffie on the station. Aunt Katie sends her love. Please give my love to Father, Hal and Freddie and kind regards to Sarah and tell her I was talking to her brother on the station, with much love to yourself.
Your loving son
Rob Wilson

Dear Mary
We had a good jounrey down. Hope you were not very tired this morning. Found all well. Beatrice looking fat - she says she has had such a good rest. George did not send my telegram, waited for me: however it will be time, but I want to get an acknowledgement of it before the sale, so shall send a 2nd confirming first. Tell Hallie I enjoyed some of his grapes at 1.am at Wallarewang.
