1 June 22nd 1916 Dear Katie, I received your very welcome letter this morning
I received the P.O. alright. It certainly had some travelling
around. I am in the best of health & we are getting plenty
of good food which means everything. It makes me very
Happy to hear that everything is doing alright at home.
I had a letter from Mrs Martin this morning also she
appears to have left the Governor on his own I hope old
Dunne will give up the stall shortly surely he ought to
take a rest now. Cattle are very dear a steak costs
1/4 per lb now I believe it is certainly a high price. I hope
old William is getting alright again remember me to him.
Hewitstown must be like a castle it is some home
that has twenty six fireplaces in it. They seem to have
got on well with Mr. Wards House I suppose they
will be living in it before the winter. It is to early
for you to think of me getting any leave yet. I might be
here for twelve months before that happy event comes
off. I enclose my Aunts letter hoping you will receive it
alright. I am very glad to hear Bridgits father is getting
the pension he is a great old man. I have no more to say
at present I now say Good-Bye and may God bless and keep you all
safe. Peter Mooney.
