Dear Rhea,
I got home O.K. shortly before 11 p.m. on Sunday. I just got home about half an hour ago and found papa back from his weekend. Auntie got a cold and stayed with cousin Della at the falls and probably will not be back till next Monday.
I have received what I know will be TERRIBLE news for you. My captain, walking home with me last night told me that he had recommended five of us for a course in musketry at Niagara camp beginning next Monday, the 22nd, and thought it would be arranged, it is goes through we will be there about three weeks I think. So maybe I won't see my little sister often? Well I guess. I'll wear the "welcome" off the mat. So that fishing trip to martindale's may materialize soon eh? I don't know how often we are allowed to leave camp but I guess I can see you frequently and then you all can come and see me. I'll let you know later in the week when I receive definite word.
I am forwarding under separate cover "Sowing Seeds in Danny" which you said you liked and would like to finish. I hope you get it before you get it out of your library. I am also sending the "Barcarolle." I think you will like it as much as "il trovatore" its simply wonderful on the violin and hope you will like it on the piano.
well I must close now as it 12:35 p.m and 6a.m. will come very soon if I don't watch out. So here's hoping to see you all soon again.
Yours
Harry
