Postcard
‘Canadian Convalescent Hospital’, Monks Horton

I wish you could see this beautiful estate though it is sad to see so many [?] mutilated or crippled as its guests just now. Some are shown in this group and all have been wounded in action. Our Canadian Premier was here a short time ago and many English “notables” – why don’t you write oftener – you owe me about 10 letters now –

Postcard

Somewhere in England
i.e., Shorncliffe, Kent
Sept. 15th 1915

Thought you might like to see what a 27 year old and married man looks like. I’ll send you a real ‘photo’ pater as I had to have one taken in London (Helen’s orders – not the King’s). When you receive the other please give this to Karl. The docks are seen in the background. France is but 25 miles away and many troops leave from here.

La Bouverie
Belgium
Nov. 20/18

Dear Leslie:
Your letter dated Oct. 20th received and I was glad to hear that you had all kept clear of the “Flu”. I hope it will soon “parti”. Well, I am now in Belgium, as you see, near Mons. We have been here five days on this place but are already to more on again. We are now allowed to describe our surroundings and tell where we are, so will try to tell you a little about the country. This part of Belgium and the northern part of France, where I have been, are rich in coal mines and Fritz had held the mines since ’14 around here. A mine is called “un fosse” in French. The people here are very hospitable and I have a nice billet with a Belgian family with a good bed (white sheets and pillows) beside a fire and the lady keeps me drinking milk or coffee all the time. They see quite a difference between us and the Boche, who used to rush in 20 at a time, in a house and drive them after what food they had at the point of a pistol. When five were in Valenciennes, just over the order in France, we were billeted in a counts’ house – Compte Jacques de Vienne. I was in that scrap at Cambrai, and it certainly was hot. I will have something to tell you when I get over there. We were not allowed to tell when up the line so I wrote my letters between scraps. In all that I was in, I saw new ground and had the pleasure of seeing Fritz go a little nearer Germany with no “iron rations” to dodge. Hoping this finds all well. I am top=hole and feeling fine. With best wishes for a Happy Xmas,

[Please excuse paper and envelope.]

Love to all
Karl.
