Letters From The Bowes Brothers – July 23, 1916 Camp Hughes, Manitoba

Howdy Maw,

Well this is just the way I feel – just like a fighting cock up and going all the time.

Received your very welcome letter some time ago. I should have answered sooner but was too lazy.

We were in Brandon Thursday and saw Dad and Stan also quite a number of others I know. Jim came up the same night and we were all up in Dad’s room for a while.

Say Mother, it is getting awfully dark in here so I guess I’ll have to close. Will write more next time.

Yours lovingly,

Fred
