Letters of Athol Cluny McPherson, April - August 1915 - Part 6

My Dear Parents

Just a hurried line to let you know

that I am well & hope you are all the same.

I was glad to receive letters from both

you, Father & Jean of the 4 10th of March

I just heard that the mail is closing

so can only write a few lines. If I had

any idea that the mail was going I would

have written several letters. Please excuse

this short note. Heaps of love to all

at home & kind regards to all Horsham

friends. I remain

Yr loving son

My Dearest Mother

Just a few lines to let you know that

I am well & hope you are all the same.

I was pleased to get letters from, you you Father

Jean & Fred by the last mail dated the 17th & 18th

& glad to know that you were all well at home

at the time of writing. I hope you have had

a good fall of rain by now, a good season this

year would soon wipe out what you lost in the

last one, as wheat is sure to be a big price this

year. Fancy chaff being eleven pounds ten in Ballarat

it must surely have been a drought down there.

I was sorry to hear about poor old Morris, but he's

getting a very old man now & a person cant expect

to live for ever, there is a Smith in our coy

(he came with the Reinforcements) who knows

him well, he used to live out at Dollum

near Hickeys & of course knows everybody round

Brimsprings. Well Mother Dear there

is no news so will close. With heaps

of love to all at home, Marion included

& kind regards to Miss Jenkins

I remain

ever ys loving son
