I last saw you, I cannot but feel, that my hopes, fears and anticipations are yours, so that it would not be wise for me to have my hopes pent up within myself. Well then, I have great hopes of something – very soon. Within a few weeks time I hope to be able to let you know that I have been fixed up.
Re my pay. I'm not sure if I explained how I alloted it.
10/6 per. diem. 2/- a day deferred pay. [symbol for 'therefore'] nett pay 8/6
3/6 a day I am keeping back – 5/- a day. you should draw 35/ week.
I think that I shall make a slightly different allotment when we get to our destination. I cannot see yet what I shall want with 3/6 a day. per. Sensible though in case of emergency.
I expect the two Greatcoats were returned to "Warren" were they.
Well dear people, nothing other to write about so will fold this up
Best love to all
From your aff. son & brother
W. A Cull
