Scope and Content

From his mother, says Wavell has done good work in bringing the famine in Bengal to an end, and this should make him popular. Says brother Harry has a new position. She has sent him a calendar to give to Auchinleck.

Note appended to this letter by Ridgway says "This was the last letter I received from Mother as she died on Nov. 17th 1943".
