    Somewhere in Egypt/Middle East – June 5th, 1916 – (Letter #15) – “How is the war going?”
  • Speaker
    Dear Brother; Just a few lines to let you know I am well at present. Hoping this will find you all the same.
  • Speaker
    This is a very hot country. It has been awful warm today.
  • Speaker
    Well, Jack, how is the war going along? I wish you would send me some papers, as we don't get very much news here.
  • Speaker
    Are you working every day and are you going down East this summer?
  • Speaker
    I had a letter from Mother the other day. I guess she is expecting you all home this summer.
  • Speaker
    She tells me Eldon has enlisted.
  • Speaker
    He is in Charlottetown training? His wife has a young daughter.
  • Speaker
    I think I will have to look for a wife before I go back, [perhaps] get some nice English lass.
  • Speaker
    My address is 3949 Private Lee G. Darrach, 1/7 Lancaster Fusiliers, C.Coy, 125 Brigade, 42 Division, Egyptian Expeditionary Force, ℅ P.O. London.
