very close upon you. Make absolutely certain that you know your French & Latin authors, Macbeth (i.e., the notes in the text), the Propositions in Geom., and the Formulae in Alegebra & Trig., by heart. As to Ancient History, don't forget the little précis of principal events and dates. Whatever you do, don't forget to read over your Latin, French & English compositions, before hand up your papers. With any unseens, take your time and keep cool, and don't forget to try for an "A" in Latin & English. This is all I can think of to tell you. The best of good luck, Mick, and I shall be thinking of you all round the November periods and hoping for bonza results.

This rest camp is very slow, but yesterday, we had a good time at Castro, the "capital" of this progressive, two-men-and-a-dog, island of Lemnos. I would like to get to Athens which is not more than 20 hours steam from here, but they are afraid of deserters, & will not give leave.

Expecting a mail in a day or two, so I will write again shortly. Kindest regards to all the boys & best love & good luck for November.

Ever your affectionate
Eric
