Letter from Edward Thomas to his wife, Helen Thomas. Archival reference: 424/1/1/1/1/108
Mrs Campbell is coming.

I have also written asking for work to the editor (what's his name?) of the Yorkshire Post and the editor of a welsh newspaper. Haynes is going to write to get me a tutorship in the vacation.

Goodnight
Love to Mary and Mrs Noble
