Dear Sir
Your step brother Pte H.G. Ritchie having been reported a Prisoner of War in Germany I am sending you a circular explaining the regulations for parcels to him.
We send parcels immediately we know his prison camp (six per four weeks) we ask relatives to help us as far as lies in their power, but in case of relatives not being in a position to help us it makes no difference to his parcels, he will have them sent just the same.
Yours faithfully,
