Letter from Albert Augustus Wynne to his daughter Veronica (Alice Clara Veronica Wynne). Albert thanks her for her letter; mentions Charlie (Charles Wyndham Wynne; her brother); writes about missing her very much and about the war being depressing; however, it should be noted that Albert's handwriting is very difficult to decipher and it is therefore hard to establish greater detail without a very detailed assessment.

 Tyrone 30/1/16 Dear V I was very pleased to get your letter of 27th & as this day is considered too wet for me to be in church with mother, Eve & C and Win is occupied in the Hitchens. I thought I wd fill this time by writing you a line in reply to yours. I am afraid you must feel it rather desolate being among entire strangers & coming back in the evening after yr work must miss a loving greeting as you were sure of at Richmond. We were glad to get your act. of your Charlie & of your company — perhaps some more sympathetic humans may in time develop or turn up. The night darkness must be further depressing, I hope you are not often headaching & that you will have enjoyed your morning with We all miss you here very much, my own little daughter & I am constantly being reminded of your absence — but we mustn't want too much, we have so much which to be thankful for when down I think of the many sorrowing households all round. Charlie is progressing splendidly &and it seems to be he is now beginning to realise what an improvement in his life he may look forward to now instead of this much suffering which he now admits to. He is looking forward to his full emancipation & 2 cherishing the next Wednesday. Mr McCausland, Mr & Lettie were here to lunch yesterday & in spite of dreary, foggy day seemed to enjoy their visit. We are looking forward to May's (Mrs.J.B.W) visit tomorrow evening, she will probably stay till end of week & she will be War news is depressing these times — I wonder do you hear more than we — The worker at Glendalough are at last again Martin & & I believe well — but Smith is bad at writing. I hope Em will now be able to run up and stir him up No more for the present. Your very loving Father Albert Wynne Albert Augustus Wynne Letter from Albert Augustus Wynne to Mr Oliver, c.
