customers because I had an [ E.T.M. ?] from Whittle &
Turner this week + addressed to Lt Col J H Massey,
congratulating me on my promotion. Nos. 9 ? 2 ? 53
I wish to God it were true, because that
rank means a much more interesting job +
more responsibility + so much more opportunity.
But, as I said before, this job seems to be
such a hell of a dead end. 42/6 a day would
be nice too, because I should not spend a
penny more + so we should be able to save
so much more for our new beginning.
I sent you a parcel on Wednesday, darling, 2 lbs
of chery jam, 1 1/2 lbs of honey, which should be
good for Maxie, 90 Players - because you told
me about hunting high & low in London & only
finding 2 small Woodbines - & a funny little
guide book about Palestinians, which I have
not yet read. I have got some more
jam for you, & a book about politics, which
Berstein gave me last summer - & I am
going to buy some material for you, & for
Maxie, for clothes. Ben's wife's father is in
the trade. Have you done anything about you
& Maxie being photographed? or about you having
some "art studies" for me only? You [must ?]
please. All my dearest deepest love, sweetest
because I love you so much. XXX Harry
