Letters and documents

BX June 16, 1915
 
Mrs. Carter, 2 George Street, received word from her brother, Private Joseph Price, announcing that he had been wounded in the Battle of La Bassee. He adds that he is in a place called Derby in England in a hospital. In a previous letter Pte. Joseph Price had stated that he had seen his friend, Corporal Claude Fraser Charlton, shot, and also another friend from Brantford, Pte. Charles Thomas Williams, who had received a severe wound in the arm, and is now in Reading hospital. Pte. Price expects to be back in the fighting again before long, as his wound is very slight.
