Harrogate Herald - 1st August 1917

WS H Breare letter

Driver Edward A Megginson, of the RFA, had influenza, which turned to pneumonia. He has been in various hospitals, but is now discharged, fully recovered. Went to a brigade ammunition column last week, was then home on leave. He is the son of Mr & Mrs Megginson, Diamond Place, Harrogate. I was glad to know that Megginson luckily received the parcel I sent him before going into hospital; so he was able to enjoy it.
