Re my C.M.F. Commission – Major Brazenor (promoted you note) told me while in Egypt – that he had seen in a Ballarat paper an extract from "District Orders" (D.Os) in which my name appeared among the names of other Ballarat Officers, as having been officially gazetted Lieuts. from such & such a date. Major Kirby promised me faithfully that he would look into the matter – he admitted that I had been wronged and said that my appointment would be dated back to that date at which it should first have appeared in orders – I feel sure that he must have done it.
At any-rate I intend to write to him Colonel R. E. Williams – Ballarat – is a/Commandant. If in Aus. now I would have no trouble to get away and with my rank too.
I met Colonel Williams at Broadmeadows
