Transcription:
Dear Gordon:
How do you like guarding the town-hall at nights?
I just forwarded a letter to you from a girl in Winnipeg so I suppose you will get it before this arrives.
Edward is at Massons for tea and Melville and I are going to a party tonight at Pattersons.
The snow is all melting here, I suppose its melting in Georgetown too.
What school teacher is it you've got a hold of up there.
Pa says if you are off duty on Sunday, to be sure and go to church twice and Bible Class.
Last Sunday night Percy sang in the choir, and when the sang the anthem, (Stand up stand up for Jesus), he couldn't find the place and he stood there and would go to turn over the page, then he would see some one looking at him and he would turn it back again.
Mr. Scot was here all night on Sunday night. (Bill) Melville has about fourteen ties and he wears a different one about every meal.
We'll here comes Bill and she wants to write to you so I guess I'll have to let her.
With Love
Margaret
Dear Gordon
I got 10 valentines today at school and I sent about 15. Miss Langtry got about 25. I may send you a valentine.
good by with love,
from Bill
