Witley Camp, Oct., 15/16.

Dear friend, -

Have been waiting for a reply to the
card I sent you from Camp Borden. I
didn't see many of the Grant people the
last time I was home an account of not
getting out to church. Rachel wanted me
to go to our church at Lucain the last
Sunday I was home as I went iwth
Tressa to hers the second last Sunday [morning stricken out]
I was home. I was down to Granton
church at night that time, so wasn't out to
our own at all that time.

I suppose you have heard all about
our trip and what the country is like. I
wasn't sick on the way over although
some of the boys were quite sick.

We were quarantined in on account of
measles but we are having a good
time playing cards, etc. Only one case
from our hut so far though to take them,
so if there aren't any more we will be
out in about a week. We can go out
once a day for a route march.
