Harrogate Herald - 31st January 1917

Letters

Private J Clark says : 

I am writing you a few lines to thank you for your kindness in sending me the Herald. It was quite a surprise. I wrote to my brother asking him if he got any Harrogate papers to send them over to me, and I got a letter from him the same day as I received your paper, saying he had sent you my number and battalion. I have not come across any Harrogate boys out here, but have been hoping to meet my brother, as it is close on ten years since I last saw him. I was in Harrogate in November, but I was that busy visiting after being away for two years I had not time to call on you, but the next leave I get I will if possible. I Don't think that day is far distant when we shall all be back with our families, as by the look of things I think Fritz is about all in. Again thanking you for your kindness and wishing you all success.
