Dear Cousin,
You will be surprised to hear from me but I wrote to your mother and she was kind enough to give me your address and having nothing to do just now I thought I would scribble you a few lines. This is my first visit to England and I am glad to say I like it very much and hope to see a great deal of it before I leave. I don’t know whether you knew that you had relatives in New Zealand. Your father was my father’s brother. When the war began I enlisted and came to that nice little place called the Dardanelles and I can tell you we had quite a lively time there but I had the bad luck to get a piece of shrapnel in my right hand. It was thought at first that I should lose my right hand but I wouldn’t let them take it off but they took one of my fingers the middle one but my hand is almost well. I expect to be out of the hospital in another week. I hope so at anyrate as I am tired and sick of this life. I have never been shut up so long in my life but of course we get splendid treatment here but I would sooner be back in the firing line than be shut up here for weeks at a time. Some people came last week with a motor and took some of us for a drive. It was grand. I never enjoyed a ride so much before and I think England a very pretty place. Of course we didn’t go far, only through Birmingham and North Field but it was nice. I have promised to go and see your mother when I get furlow. I am getting fourteen days. I should like to see you if I can. After that I suppose I shall very likely go to France. I would much sooner go to France than back to the Dardanelles. For one reason I want to see France and if I get there I shall be satisfied. I only had my finger taken off last Thursday, week tomorrow and my hand is rather stiff and a little painful at times but the stitches are making it sore. I have another brother wounded in Malta and another in the peninsular so you can see that there are three of us. Perhaps you will get tired of reading this scribble. I think I will close. Hoping you are in the best of health. Excuse my scribble. Wishing you will reply I remain yours Cousin,
Willie Angell
