[Autographed letter to Mr. Langtree, 24th September 1917]
Description
A letter sent to Mr. Langtree by the men of "B" Company, 4th Battalion, "just after a stunt at the front" in 1917. The men, "being too lazy to write individually, wish to express in a simple manner their great pleasure on receiving a parcel of first class tobacco. Each of the signatures below and above is a symbol of gratitude to our lady barrackers at home, and we wish them all the very best of good luck". Contains roughly 55 signatures.
