France. Tuesday, April 16/18

My dear Fran. -

Just a line to let you know that I am feeling O.K.

I received my first letter yesterday and it was one of yours which had been forwarded on to me. I certainly was glad to get it. It was the only letter that arrived in the hut and I asked if anybody wanted to read a letter. A couple of fellows who were expecting letters took advantage of the offer. I guess they thought it was from some girl or other though.

I have been trying to locate Reg the last few nights but I believe he is up the line. I will find him one of these days though.

I will be going up to my battalion one of these days. At present they keep us busy on working parties and training. Things are a good deal more comfortable for me way out here now.

Well, Fran Cherrio. Write often. Best love to Aut and Stan and everybody in Toronto.

Your loving Bro, Ted.
