1 12. April My pv A perfectly rampant
bw as I have not yet got
a decision as to my going
is whether I start tomorrow
night or later. All I know
is that the General is quite
willing for me to go any-
time I can be spared.
I may turn up Friday
I hope fairly early as this
boat is supposed to leave
Boulougne at 6.15AM. It
will be so so my inquiry
so either I or a most assured
come letter in my place
should reach you. Your bw 2 A. F. W. 3337
