Title Letter dated 6/11/1919 sheet 1
Description My dear Father,

I have not written to any of you before, as I gave Mary all the news & told her to tell you anything interesting. This is going to be a great experience for anyone that is lucky enough to get to the other end of it. I suppose we have seen more fighting now than anyone has seen since the Crimea. I don’t know what people in England can have been doing, but they must have very much underestimated their strength. They have been more than a match for our Generals anyway. We have licked them in actual fighting, but it has done us no good & now as I suppose you know in England we are cooped up in this place and are being besieged by about 20,200 Boers.
