Austra, [Austria] but I think it will be a long time yet before that happens. It is getting very hot here now up to 110° & it is impossible to work in the middle of the Day. We have been well treated & have had good times here. When we first came we were at Meana [Mena] Camp at the Perimid but after a month we came to Helioplis the other side of Ciro & only four miles out of Ciro, the other camp was nine miles out. At Helioplis we were camped on the race corse in the middle of the town which is a nice place & only new it was built as a second Montie Carlo. We used to be out every night when we were not on duty, & we had plenty of fun. Well before I joined the Army I go was with my Father at home & was dealing & working at home. I had a very good time as Alex McCracken was on his father place five miles away, & we as usual enjoyed our selves, plenty of hunting three times a week. Of corse I am single & have no desire to be any way, as I could never give up my freedom. Oh, I forgot to say how pleased I was to hear of the arrival of you son, now be carefull and don't spoil him.

Over.
