Private Thomas McGlone, Service number 10045, of D Company, 10 Battalion, West Yorkshire Regiment, wrote on YMCA headed paper from Wareham Camp, Dorset. He states that he has been stationed there since 16th September and that all his 'soldier chums from York' have received the gift except him. He asks to be sent one, 'not for the sake of the chocolate, but the honour of receiving one' from the Lord Mayor of the 'good old City of York'. He also includes his York address of 15, Portland Place, Layerthorpe.
