W H Breare letter

To Private C Todd, whose home is at Homebottom Farm, Nidd : 

I note that your brother, Private Walter Todd, has been missing since the 1st March. No, I have not any information about him, but I hope that some of the boys who read my letter today will be able to send me something. At all events, do not despair of hearing from your brother, for I think in all probability he may be a prisoner in Germany. We have heard from other boys who have been prisoners even longer than your brother. At all events, do not give up hope. Have faith!
