Scope and content
Joseph Lee, Service number 4839, of 18th Hussars, was serving with the British Expeditionary Force and wrote on YMCA headed paper from Rouen, France. He states that he will keep the box 'in remembrance of this war' and that it will 'make a nice centre to the Queen's box from South Africa and Princess Mary's box' which he received last Christmas. He adds that he hopes 'all the young fellows in York are enlisting for the sooner they do the sooner it will be over and home again'.
