I like Australia very well but
shall be able to tell you after
I have been here some time how it
agrees with me From the time
of landing Feb 14th to Feb 24th in was
dry and fine pretty warm and
then we had a shower of rain
a forerunner I suppose of the
winter or rainy season I will
now draw this rough account to
Australia to a close with the hope
that it will pass a few hours or
rather minutes away and if not
very much edified I trust you
will have been interested for
such was the desire of the writer
in sending these sheets
Now wishing you all a loving
goodbye I remain your loving
Brother and Friend Willm Strapps
