No 13.

My dear Murray,

I have written an a/g to the RAAF Base Post office, as hope you received it with this. Your address seems to change a great deal, & I didn't notice it was this one again on your a/g just received. I think that perhaps I told you about Gordon's operation in a boat mail letter, it was a couple of growths, non-malignant, on the wall of the bladder, Papilloma, it is called, I had a letter from him yesterday, & he said that he is quite fit again, & now he is at Bankstown N.S.W. All your three pages arrived together dear, in one envelope, & was I thrilled to get them. Such a lovely long letter, thank you so much for them. I am making you another pair of long sox. I hope mine are as good a fit as those Aunt Enid made for Margaret to send you. I am sure the knitted sox must be very comfortable so long as the shoes are the correct size, & I am glad you like them now dear. I suppose you are quite well dear after your treatment you did not say. Seventeen days for the a/g/ was the best I have heard of, must have connected without delay, all the way. I am sure that the [illegible]  over[?]  one will be very nice indeed & I shall love it, & also the stockings than you so much for sending them to me. I'll cable as soon as I receive the parcel. Did you receive my two letters 70 & 71, dear. You have not mentioned them, & also two of Margaret's sent at the same time, I suppose we must just be patient, & wait until they give you home leave, but that will be the day. Surely it cannot go on in this way for ever, things certainly seem to be much brighter. I am glad to say that I am quite well again dear & have got rid of the cold [illegible] , & will enjoy the warmer weather. Yes, so [illegible]  the tank has stood up to the requirements of the cottage but after the war I'd like a better water supply there. The chimney is quite good & everything else in order. We shall all miss Rae, it was so nice having her at home again. Take care of yourself dear.

With heaps & heaps of love your ever Mother.

EDITH WILSON. E O Wilson
