Dear Emmie

Thanks for letter received this morning. I am answering this directly after seeing Mum and Dad off, hoping that you get it Monday morning. We have had a fine day today I wish it had been like it last week. We went to Blackdown to see Mr Avery but he is away at Torquay. I think nothing of W.L’s words and would not take advantage of them. I thank you very much for tracing my music stand. I have sent home by Ma a piece of Goss for you: I hope you like it. I can think of no more this time so will end

With Love From Will

P.S. Please excuse scribble: as in haste.
