G Disney writes :

Just a line or two to thank you for your kindness in sending me your paper while I was in France. I hardly know how to thank you enough for the kindness you show to all of us. I am sure your paper is a regular treat to us all. I am glad to say that I have arrived in Blighty and that I have got my discharge, as I have been under operation and am now troubles with rheumatism and my back and lumbago. I was discharged on the 25th October as medically unfit for any more service in the Army, and am hoping soon to be at work in a munitions factory as soon as I am able. I was very sorry when I got home to find that my wife had had a stroke a fortnight before I got home, and had lost all the use of her right side; but glad to say she is now in the improve and getting on very nicely. Remember me to all the lads in your paper. I will call and see you soon as I come up to Harrogate to thank you personally.
