a letter from the Head Office by this mail which gives one possible Explanation. They say, in answer to my letter to them, that they transferred the amount to Bombay and as I have drawn on them for the amount. They are arranging to reclaim it from Bombay.

It is possible that Bombay transferred it to Calcutta who have in turn sent it on to Pundi??? If this is so it has Taken rather a long time getting here hasnt it Father 5 marks!

The other explanation is that this 25 is not the original(Jeb) me at all, but that you have quietly sent along another 25 in hearing that I am going on leave Father. If this is so I must thank you very much indeed for it Father.

Money is always useful particularly at "Leave times. I think that the next time you send any money Father the simplest way will be for you to pay it with?? my a/c with the National Provincial and let me know that you have done So.

I will then draw a cheque for the amount,pay it into my a/c here. I shan't lose any more in exchange this way than by sending it via Cox. The last 25 reached me as 24:12:2.

I had a letter from Philipio at Salmice?? some little time back. He is (or was) only a Pte. in the R.A.M.C. and consequently does the work of Medical Orderly. He would be under Darwand?? who is probably by now - or soon will be - a Captain. To join the ranks of the RAMC you need no medical

I could not put in pounds, because I do not have it on my keyboard. It's quite interesting to peer into ssomeone's diary from the past, particularly a divinity student depending on the kindness of his Father. Is it Father as in priest or biological Father.
