Scope and content
Gunner Henry Armitage of 9 Battery, 41st Brigade, was serving with the British Expeditionary Force. He states that he is pleased the men are thought of by someone else besides their families. He adds that the gift will remind York men of home and will be 'something to be proud of when this great trouble is over'. He is sure every man will do his best to uphold the 'honour of the Old City and King and Country'. He ends by asking for the writing to be excused as they 'have no pen and ink and no table to write on'.
