Dear Mrs Berryman

I see the name of Capt Berryman in the list of wounded, I fear it must be one of your sons? If this is so I trust he is not severely wounded & that you are able to get news of him? Do you know in what hospital he is being nursed? What an anxious time it is for everybody!

The only way to keep up at all is I think to keep as busy as possible. I hope your other sons are all right so far? There seems a little lull in Flanders just now, but I believe the fighting recently has been appalling, one wonders if there can be anyone left. Perhaps you can find time just to send me a post card.

I remain

Y. very sincerely

Beatrice L. Shelton
