the difficult task of the boys & bore it all.
I bid your Son adieu, all the time I was in Hospital I was thinking of him, I wrote him several times & before I left I heard from him.
I have been anxious about him since as I heard he was badly wounded (I sincerely hope this is not the case) would you kindly let me know as I would like to meet Bob on his return. My one ambition when in Hospital was to get back to make some return to those boys especially your Son for whom I thought the job was so strenuous.
Until I have the pleasure of meeting him, would you kindly accept my sincere wishes for his safe return to you, & you may well feel proud of a Son who has not only rendered valuable services to his country, but to a comrade when in distress.
With kind Regards,
I remain, Yours Sincerely
F. Bailey, Pte.
2nd Battalion.
