David W Cross, Service number 5691, of 1st West Yorkshire Regiment wrote from Headquarters, British Expeditionary Force. He states that the gift serves to remind him of the 'Old City' where he will be 'pleased to return when hostilities cease'. He adds that 'progress is very slow but is also very sure' and that they will not be shaken off 'until Enough is cried by the Enemy'. He ends by saying that the troops are in good health and spirits and are 'looking forward to the day when they return to the Old Country A Victorious Army'.
