From your soldier Boy
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
