Sunday evening

Dear Mother-

I am glad to hear you have arrived safely at Pitney – and I hope this letter reaches you there-

It seems to have got so cold all of a sudden to-day. I had my friends the Hills onboard to tea this afternoon. I think they enjoyed it quite – although there’s not fearfully much to do. I went to tea & dinner with them yesterday-

A happy feeling to-night – that you are in a nice safe place.

Goodnight Mother-

My best love

from your loving son

Paul

Please give my love to all at Pitney
