Dear Mary,&#13;
I received your letter dated Tuesday 15th which has not quite arrived yet but will soon be. So you are busy spring cleaning in summer but better late than never. Have you got anything to do with the patients yet &amp; do you have any wounded in there? Who is the kind patient that is going to knit the hosetops. Are there no soldiers in Ding at all just now it must be a bit dull. [Illegible] was a bit luck but he can’t boast of much as yet although he may see enough of it yet. There are twenty of us staying in this house different regiments and we have our food cooked in the house. Write soon Love from Dodo</text>
