Harrogate Herald - 2nd January 1918

Acknowledging receipt of the Herald, Gunner J Darwin says : 

I can tell you I look forward to it coming very much. I saw recently lots of familiar faces of the Beechwood Boys. There was Stanley Horn, of Starbeck, the Harrogate and District League football referee, and we had a good chat about the days when football was going well in Harrogate. I also saw Bert Kitson, of New Park, and Sam Coupland, and a good many more old faces, and we had some pleasant talks of old times in the old town. I am sorry to say that my friend George Pullan has moved somewhere else, and is expecting to be shortly to be going on leave. Old Fritz is at present nice and quiet and behaving himself; he may be giving us an Xmas treat. Wishing you all success and a merry Xmas.
