[March 1917]
in the tool case of the Triumph. If there is not such a thing to be had maybe you could find some little thing convenient to fold them up in. Failing this I could probably make or get one from the A.S.C. so dont bother much about that. Re. wire cutting pliers most do not cut wire as the cutting edges generally do not close tight on each other. You should look at them & see there is practically no light showing between edges when closed All little tools practically are useful to me as builder & telephonist and they should be portable so that I can carry them as we pursue the retreating Germans! I wonder will I get a bit of Shamrock for the 17th I expect not as mails are delayed.
I hope you are all right dearie It is very distressing not getting a word at all from you or news of the little one.
Good night now dearie
Yours very lovingly
Patrick
