My dear Father.
How is that sheep that you had to cut the skin off. Did you catch Any dingoes when you had that drive. Is the rape in the middle paddock come ing up yet. Is are Okley and n Hutsley Hutly and Mr Plaskman [Blackman?] still ploughing ein the hundre Acker. I am able to swim now. Our school has got a flag pole put up and we have got a flag of our own and on the flag is written in latin "not for our self" That is our moto And when Mrs Denyer comes to un furl it we will get a half holiday. I lent that Wonder Buk for Boys and girls to Mr Yarnold and he has read it to us every wensday afternoon, and a boy who was sick asked Mr Yarnold if he could get it, thinking it was in the libery, and so Mr Yarnold asked me to lent it to him and said he would get me a new one if it got nocked about and of corse I said I would.
good bye Father.
Your loving son.
Rob
