- [Upper left:] Copy [Centre:] Dear Father & family [Upper right:] France 19/2/17 [Below "19":] 26 I've [here?] had several letter from home & feel a bit ashamed for not having answered earlier - But yesterday I recieved the tidings, glad tidings about old Dan - - - By Jove, I'm simply overjoyed! - Just as I know you are. It's the best news in years - it is simply great. I'm not more than a big days march from the house of his fiancee & I feel tempted to jump a freight into that town, for a day, to make the acquaintance of our future sister-in-law. I'll bet she is a "bit of alright" as Dan would say, for he's got excellent taste, has Dan. But what beats me is the circumstances under which it all happened! - the pre-arrangements & businesslikeness of fit, which alone would have been enough to cause failure where a Destrube is concerned, under ordinary luck. & so I say "Three Cheers for Mme Beaurain"! And he has to be in Boulogne (according to your letters) last Saturday; I could have been to see him. Were passes granted. Yes, it's grand news & I shall write him right away. Thanks for cough drops -De - glad to say my cold is much better now. The feverishness has gone & I cough much less. The cold spell has broken up & we now have ordinary winter weather for which poor old Guy & Paul must by very thankful - very best love - affectionately signed Georges [Right, lower third of page:] France 22/2/17 [Below "22":] 26 Dear Pumps I forgot to say in my last letter that I was broke. Have been so for quite a long time & have been living on pay. I was'nt paid while in [Harfield?] & I am only paid 5 p here. I had thought it best to wait till I joined Guy & Paul but I am doomed to be here for a long time yet. Another chap from our tent is developing & I expect he'll go to hospital tomorrow which will mean another 3 weeks for us here (& more if another case breaks out) oh hell! I cannot make a long letter of this, there is nothing to say: Life in this isolation camp is one dead monotony & I find I cannot for the life of me make anything of it. Here is my new address: Pte. L.G.D. no 50512 2nd Royal Fusilers Tent 53 - Segregation Camp A.P.O. 5.11 - BEF France - Georges -

- [Centre:] FROM GEORGES DESTRUBE TO THE FAMILY[Upper left:] COPY. [Upper right:] France 17/3/17Dear Ones,I have recieved your numerous letters and they have been a great consolation to me. I hope you get mine too; I sent one the daybefore yesterday in a green envelope. I believe I have already said that I recieved no copy of <del>ye</del>your letter to Col. Barker, and I would like one very much.You will find many letters enclosed, I would like you to putthem by for me Pumps, - except of course the new letters that you haven't yet seen; these last you can keep, Pumps.I shall be leaving segregation on Tuesday so my new addresswill be -, Pte. Destrube, No. 50512, 22nd Royal Fusiliers, I.B.D. A.P.o.Sec. 17. B.E.F. France. There is a letter from Vinicombe. He latterly joined theM.G. He was not with Guy and Pauls team but he knew them well, thoughperhaps not intimately. He was a Sergt. last summer, but was reduced to the ranks for shewing cowardice, so I heard. He was a good hearted fellow though. It was a great, great relief to know that our dear boyswere buried together and a cross erected, - this will make it possible tofind their dear grave when the war is over and it will be a greatconsolation to us all. When I get on the Front again I shall naturallytry and locate the spot but unless the Battn. returns to that neighbourhood, this will be impossible. But you may rest assured that the graveswill remain untouched and the spot still quite traceable after the war. Also the burying parties are instructed to make notes of the exact whereabouts which are preserved in England. A chap told me that there wasa public office in London where they made it a business of keeping theserecords and all such information. It is in charge of Sir Lionel Earle,he did not know the exact address, you could enquire Pumps. I should imagine that their personal belongings will have been sent to you without delay. I wrote to Cox asking him to see aboutit and to do his utmost to secure everything and that if some of theirthings fell in the hands of strangers to buy them back if necessary. I hope so much that we get everything back.I met Forbisher again, his version was quite correct, -poor Paul was first to be killed.I do not know at all whether Paul left any things atEdmonton or not. I should imagine that somebody at the Bank would know-unfortunately, the people where he was boarding have left, I think. Ofcourse I don't know their address.Will you please forward the parcel from Rife to the new address I gave you. (I'm afraid it will contain more tobacco than I canpossibly use if such was the duty!)Thanks so much my very dear Syl, for your kind numerousletters. Sunday. 18//17.Last night I recieved a letter from you dear old Syl, and 2 from Mme. Mac Coll and one from Rene. I am so pleased to hear that Minty is arlight, - I hadheard he was killed (only rumour). Goodbye my dear ones, (I dont feel I can write a longerletter.) Love to all Lovingly yours Georges

- [Centre:] Dear ones [Upper right:] Somewhere Jany 21 - 17 [Below "21":] 24 We recieved your various letters for which many many thanks. I am uncertain whether we have already acknowledged receipt of a parcel containing socks etc which we received at the begining of the month. The papers reached us safely enough but as yet there are no developments to report. We have had no news from Georges up to date & are wondering if he will be recalled to England before reaching this battalion. To day I had word from Newman Chambers, but evidently he wrote before receiving mine. Regarding Guy's leave, the time is I believe approaching & inside three weeks from now you may expect to see him, unless, of course, the unexpected happens. We have left our comfortable billet some little time now & are again within the sound of barking guns. The weather remains very cold, adding to the discomforts of active service. During the next few days we expect to know what chances we stand & will keep you conversant with the progress or otherwise made. It is my belief that the success of the enterprise rests with the Colonel whom we have not yet seen regarding this matter. I am in bed - that is to say rolled up in my blankets on the floor - it's just about the warmest place around. We recieved a parcel from tante Lisa & co & post cards from M. [Ducros?]& [illegible] When I have answered M Newman's letter I will forward it to you. He has been sick & away from his club at Devonshire House<sup>x</sup> Will close now With best love to all Signed Paul x - should be Cecil House

- [Upper left:] Copy [Centre:] Dear ones [Upper right:] Jany 4th 17 We recieved your letters together with a remittance for which many many thanks We have also recieved word from Georges who is at the Base in France waiting to be sent to a battalion. He wrote to our adjutant, asking that our Batt should claim him, which they were good enough to do. We therefore expect him back with us within a few days Ye gods! but there will be some tongue wagging for a day or two when we are reunited again! We hope that it will not be long before he is recalled by the RFC Many thanks dear Syl for obtaining those papers but was it was necessary to go to Sir Newman for them, I thought they could be obtained easily in England? I have as yet heard nothing from him, but wrote to him yesterday quite a long letter (that is long for me) There have been many irregularities in the leave question so that it is difficult yet for Guy to judge when his [time?] will come round; perhaps in three weeks time. We have not much longer to remain here now, but at least we got the Christmas festivities in, which were quick, but pleasant enough. There are no developments to report concering our little schemes. The mail deliveries have been very irregular of late, some of the late letters we have received taking as much as eight days to come. I know of nothing further to say, so will close now. With very best love signed Paul
