Item Y/ADM/4/2/1/158 - Letter from Private H Pattison to the Lord Mayor and Sheriff of York

1 item

Private Harold Pattison, Service number 2226, of F Company, 5th West Yorkshire Regiment, wrote from Leeman Road, York. He states that the box is splendid and he will always 'save and prize' it. He adds that it is good to know that people who he does not know think of him 'in this time of sacrifices'. He has three brothers serving, two of whom are at the Front, so he thinks they are doing their share. He ends by apologising for using pencil as he is 'on Guard and cannot get ink'.
