My dear Dorothy,

I arrived here in good time tired out. The journey was without incident. I was up with Cassie and had dinner with her on Sunday. They are fine boys, hers

Could you please tell me the name of the eldest - I have got their names mixed, - I want to send him a Post Card sometime, and don't tell Cassie that I did not know!

There has been no development yet as to when I leave here, but they are clearing out the hospitals all over to make room for the Spring casualties.

The Cavalry have got some work now. They have got to keep on touch with Enemy's rear guard.

Hoping you are well,
Willie
