Letter from Tommy today telling
us of his voyage which he enjoyed
very much, except for the fright
the submarine gave them. They
fired on it & evidently gave it a
worse fright for it dived & disappeared.
He writes form the second ship he
has been in but I do not know
where he transhipped. When
writing he was outside Alexandria
& expected to land there.
Had a letter also from Marie but
not in such good spirits as usual
she had not had mail for some —
time.
Paid a visit to Clyde Road — saw
Granny & Auntie. Uncle Charlie
