Private John H Pawson, Service number 9986, of No. 10 Ambulance Train, Royal Army Medical Corps, was serving with the British Expeditionary Force. He states that the gift box was very much admired by men he showed it to. He hopes his brother Edward, of 109th Battalion, Royal Field Artillery, serving with the 23rd Brigade, also received the box as he is 'sure he would be proud to have such a gift'. He ends by signing himself 'A Proud Son of York' and gives his York address as 25 Wolseley St.
