Dear Steyn
Excuse short note but I must ask you for some more smokes
up to the present I haven't got those you sent last; I would be glad if you
would make enquiries re them. Things going on slowly, in good health. Please
send me a paper occasionally, "Argus" or "Times". Kindest regards to your
fiancee and to your good self from your chum

Mr Hubert..... Oh Miserable dog! You never brought anything but fleas and
you have the nerve to take a pie from Mister Barbier.

Dear Mr President
May I presently remind you of the success which, without a doubt, is due to crown this year's fête?
Last year I had the pleasure of assisting with the entry of S. M. Carnaval. Do not think it is a lack
of interest on our part, quite the contrary. Best to you.
