Sapper E Russell says :
I came across one of the boys I used to work with at
the Gas Company. His name is Addyman. It is very nice to meet someone
whom you know. The place we are now in is very nice - a good change
from the roar of the guns.

Russell, Gas Office, who was Masonic Hall keeper. He has two
brothers who went out in December and January. He had seen Addyman,
who worked with him at the Gas Office. Russell has been two years

The following are men who have sent us the Army
post-card briefly stating that they are well and have received
papers and parcels, or whose letters contain views that have
repeatedly been expressed by other correspondents, but show their
friends that they are all right :

Letters
Mrs Dyson Lister has received the following
acknowledgement from Sapper E Russell :
I am taking the liberty of
writing to thank you for underpants forwarded by Mr Breare. I am
sure the Harrogate people have done exceedingly well in sending
things to boys on active service, and it is a pleasure to know we
have such kind friends thinking about us. We get it very rough at
times especially in the winter months. I hope soon we shall see the
end of the war, as I think everyone has had enough.
