the war
this seems to be the first postcard that
Willie Bell sent to Sara Rea
(sadly there is no date)
Friday - L. Corpl. Wm. Bell, 110th ? Ambulance
R.A.M.C. Hut 28 South Camp, Seaford Sussex, Eng.
Dear Miss
Rea, I hope you wont think it rude of me to drop you a line as I
thought there would be no harm in doing so, well as you see I
have arrived in London, and am leaving London for Seaford at
5.30. I have been in London from 12.45 and have had a very
enjoyable time as it all was so strange to me. Well I hope this
finds you well as I got your address, and thought I would send
you a p.c. and I hope you won't think it any harm, hoping to
hear from you soon. Best Love. L. Corpl. Wm. Bell

3.12.15 In my little dug-out
Dear S, Many thanks for letter received, glad to know that your
Father, and all at home are well. I often think of you
when I take out the little Testament to read. We are very
busy now in the trench so I will write to you later, I think
this is all till I hear from you later, With best love, From,
yours ever, L-Corpl. Wm. Bell x x x x x
O God our help in ages past, Our Hope for years to come,
Be Thou our Guard while life shall last, And our Eternal Home.
