Letter from George to Ruth Mallory from France
Had just got back from a longish walk. His imagination had been wandering in idle leisure among the Alps and planning wonderful expeditions up great mountains. They would get there together next August.
He was feeling quite well again now. In former years they would have called it the flu but that had to be used for more a more violent illness now.
His lecture [on civics] had gone off quite well. The Colonel and other officers seemed quite pleased with it and had suggested other topics he could give further lectures on but he wasn’t keen to do this.
Would she be going to London for the sales? He needed things like civilian collars and shirts but he could get those in Godalming.
