Harrogate Herald – 3rd March 1915

Private G Deighton, 2nd West Yorks, writing home, says :

Dear Mother, Just a line to you hoping to find you well as it leaves me at present in the best of health. Don't worry about me, as I am all right here. It's real if only it were fine weather. Did I tell you about the Town Clerk of Falmouth, Mr E E Armitage? He was waiting on the station to see us off, and he gave me 6s and some fags. He is a Harrogate chap. Tell Dad not to worry about me, as I am all right.

Your loving son, George.
