Scope and content

[Cairo.]—(10th.) Is attending a French class conducted by a ‘Cairo civilian’ with an appalling accent. Has been on one of Mrs Devonshire’s trips and has received some photographs taken by one of the Czech officers with whom he went to Baalbek.—(12th.) Thanks her for her letter. Is sorry she will miss Colin’s weekend visits for a month or so.

(An air-mail letter-card. Dated at ‘M.I.8, G.H.Q., M.E.F.’ The latter part of the address stands for ‘General Headquarters, Middle East Force(s)’, but the meaning of ‘M.I.8’ is unclear.)
