Dear Girls

Just a few lines today to let you know that I am still alive.  I should have written sooner but we have been so unsettled that I never seemed to get at writing.  You can send my letters to the old address in France.  I have written home today and to Erin.  I was up to London last week end and Bill was home he certainly looks well and we had a good visit together.  It is inclined to be a little wet to day I guess we will soon get more rain than we need.  I suppose I will not get much mail for awhile now until I get settled again.  I would like to have got with Erin but it seemed to be deemed other wise.  I do not seem to have much news to tell you to day but you know it is pretty hard to write letters here.  I had a letter from J. Flett last week I often wonder how he is making out.  Well Girls I will have to quit this scribble.  I got a picture from Mamie.  Well Goodbye for this time from

Your Loving Brother
John
