Harrogate Herald - 15th
January 1915
Sergeant C Lupton, of the 12th West Yorks
Regiment, son of Mrs Lupton, 15 Robert Street, Harrogate, is
a prisoner at Lager 2, Rennbahn, Munster, Block 2, Room 3,
Westphalia, Germany.
In a letter home he shows that the dietary is not
all that could be desired (there is evidently much more in the
expression "all that could be desired"! than appears on
the face of it) and should any of his friends desire to supplement
it we may mention some of the articles that he suggest would be
acceptable : Bread, currant bread, or anything with fruit in, tinned
milk, syrup, chocolate powder, margarine, cheese, meat paste,
marmalade, jam, oatmeal, or Quaker oats, &c.
Parcels up to 11lbs in weight can be sent free.

W H Breare letter
I have been able to read a few letters from Sergeant
C Lupton, son of Mrs Lupton, of Robert Street, who is a
prisoner in Germany. With the letters came a photograph showing that
Lupton is in good health, and bears no sign of privation. He is
receiving parcels regularly. I hope to be able to give his
photograph, together with a comrade, as they appear in their German
prison.
