Letter to Ruth Mallory written from France during the Battle of the Somme, 'Sept 10 1916'

Had spent the morning talking with the cook whilst he warmed his bottom by the kitchen fire which was made of three tins. He was beautifully shaven and well groomed, his nails clean and his hair was tidy. He had sorted sundry papers and done the accounts and was now sitting at the writing table in the ante-room. The corner seat was a great success. Was due to go to town with the caterer who had a number of commissions.
