H.M.S. MALAYA.

c/o G.P.O.

7^th April

Dear Mother.

Thanks for your little note of enquiry – I am perfectly allright – and I am still one behind you – I’ve never seen one yet!

My Thursday’s letter went just after I got yours – so you will have seen by the date.

Will you send this on to Dick – I don’t exactly know how to address it-

Rosamund says she will do something for our Church.

Lovely day again to-day-

Very best love from

Your loving son

Paul

P.T.O.

Paul continued on the other side on the following day.

This letter shows how frustrating it is to have just one side of a correspondence – what hasn’t Paul seen? From the context, a zeppelin or an aeroplane seems the most likely.
