3) Madam, I beg to state that I never had the honour of hearing you sing
Star of Peace, neither in the Limestone version nor Port Sunlight version,
and am therefore unable to answer your esteemed inquiry (no extra charge for
these big words) I note the spelling, and won't forget. We had a man in the
office who calls himself Mac-Kie (accent on the Kye) and spells it Mackay,
and the manager of the sunlight factory at Lille, France, is a Macchi (Mac
Kye again). He has a nice French brogue. I think he changed the spelling
when he emigrated from 25, which he said was the noisiest place outside the
island [was he thinking of gramophones] I don't suppose you wd. swop
places with the lady on the other side, I hope she's insured.
4) 4th August to Mr. W. Mackie, 25 Limestone Road, Belfast, N. Ireland -
Dear Granda, We are having a good time here with good weather and not much
rain. We were at Port Erin yesterday visiting the 23rd Scouts camp and had a
great time. I hope your all well at home. Willie

1) also see above (3) postcard - With all the papers talking of Princess
Ena, you will be proud of your name, which is short and sweet, as mine would
be if it was Jam instead of James. I am proud too, because I have just heard
Star of Peace sung & played by the man who wrote it years & years ago. I
send you his photo, and if he comes to Belfast be sure you see him. He
played the Port Sunlight version, as murdered by Martha and Minnie, the tune
which I introduced to the Limestone. Lever Brothers are thinking of bringing
out a toilet soap names ENA. Let us hope they have the sense to do that. One
of their managers thought of it. They would sell it in Spain and at No. 25.
Mr. Jude was in the Grosvenor Hall some time ago. If I have spelt your name
wrongly please drop me a postcard & say so and I will have another try at
it. Miss Mackay, Mackie, Mackey
