Dated 14 December 1925, The Reverse Reads:
from ? , C/- J Bambury, 19 Russell Street, Palmerston North.
Dear Ivy,
Just a line to let you [know] that I am still alive and kicking. We had a very calm trip over in the boat and a very decent time in Wellington. We left Wgton Monday afternoon for here. I am having a good time although it is very quiet. The only drawback is that I have had a very bad cold since I left ChCh. Remember me to Miss Grubb, Miss Read & Ella."
