Dear Margaret:
Well, I am writing a few lines to tell you I got back safely. I got into camp about 11:15 last night. How was the fishing and did you see Laura and Bob ? When I was going from Dresden to Thamesville yesterday I saw Alex and the girl friend heading for Dresden but I was in a car and I guess he never noticed me.
I didn’t get in bed until almost twelve o’clock and at about twenty to one they called us out of bed for a nice little march in the pouring rain. And you know about how much sleep I got over the weekend. I just about fell asleep on my feet. We didn’t get back into camp until a quarter after two.
Well, I will close for now, as I have some more writing to do and I want to get to bed early. Write soon.
Love, Allan
P.S. The pheasant and chocolate pie was delicious.
