TELEGRAM



This telegram, from Grace to Stanley has been wrongly addressed to:

'2364226  Bristow  HQ 15 Docks Sec I.E.  C.M.F'   

and later re-directed to 15 L of C Signals.  Although dated 1 February, it was initially postmarked 6 February and re-postmarked 10 Feb.  The address, in pencil, is not in Grace's writing, so she must have given the address verbally and at this point it was wrongly written down.

NOTTINGHAM 1 FEB

I WISH WE WERE TOGETHER ON THIS SPECIAL OCCASION ALL MY BEST WISHES FOR A SPEEDY REUNION FONDEST LOVE DARLING GRACE SKUSE

2364226 Sergt. S.

Anyway, just in case it does, I’ll start by wishing you lots of happiness on your birthday – and here’s an extra typewritten couple of birthday...

Grimethorpe Monday   12.7.43 My Very Own Darling, Once again I write to you from “mucky Grimy”. I wrote you an ordinary letter this week-end which was posted this morning.   I could not get hold of any Air Letters in Abertillery. The most thrilling part about coming home again was that there were two letters waiting for me from you and the lemons .   The lemons had arrived Wednesday morning.   Mother said that five were in good condition and six had to be used immediately as they were getting soft.   Only two were bad.   The parcel too was in fairly good condition.   I think that we ought to say thank you to the Army Post Office for delivering the goods and you know how I would like to thank you for them don’t you, Darling?   As it is I am afraid that you will have to be satisfied with a thank you on paper and one large extra kiss on the end of my letter. Mother said that Dad has been ill in bed (I did mention it in my ordinary letter)...

G.H.N.                                                                                (96) 3-2-44 My Very Own Darling, Your letter dated Jan 1 st and your air letter dated Jan 25 th arrived yesterday.   The latter you hoped would arrive on Feb. 6 th but the A.P.O. must have worked overtime as it only took a week to come. Darling, you sent me a beautiful letter.   I agree with you when you say that our love has grown stronger in the last years and into something really deep.   It is something that I have never experienced before and would never have believed that a love such...
