Scope and Content Written from St George’s School, Broadstairs, Kent. Saying that he was sorry to hear of Granny’s death and that he would send a wreath. Also telling Lilian that they had been tobogganing, he had hit Douglas, and that stamp collecting was becoming popular at the school. John asked Lilian to send him some stamps and whether she would be visiting or that was an “extravagance in war time”.
