Inscription on reverse: France, 9 October 1916.  Dear Frances. Just a few lines to let you know that I have not forgotten you.  I am not sure if I answered your last letter, I have not wrote [sic] that many & I forgot who I have sent them to.  All my mates that I came into camp with have gone away.  I could write a good letter about this place if it was not for censoring them , so I have to be carefull [sic] what I do.  It looks as though I am not even going to get away to the line.  Some of my mates are back in camp wounded.  This makes one wish he was back in N. Z. having a good time.  Well Frances, I don't think I can tell you anything more.  I can't write anything about this place.  So I think I will come to close with good luck & heaps of love from your old pal Bernie XXXXXXXX
