A letter home
Dear Mother,
A few words to give you some news that are still very good. Mother Josée did write and I await new news from Cook agency in Belgium. She hopes to take a boat from Pretoria Castle on 10 July 1958. I will try to make the date sooner from Johannesburg. Mother I believe the ... will come in Lawley Saturday. I hope that Dad and yourself are in good health and so are my small devils. See you soon, I love you.
R. Basseille
