Dear mother and sister
We got back alright. Did Lizzie get home alright. Say we have to have a letter from home asking for the month’s help. You write a letter as soon as you can get it here, put this on it:
Lt. Col. J.B. McPhee
177 Batt C.E.F
Sir, I would like help of my son Pte. J.B. Speerin to help with haying and harvest for a month on my farm, from the 15th of July to the 15th of August. As he is my only help.
Yours truly, Mrs. J. Speerin
Write this as soon as you can. We want to get off Saturday if we can. Send the letter to me and I will hand it to the Col. Only put on the Col’s address inside. You know how to do it.
Bye bye from Bruce
