Captain - they had a hundred lorries on
board for the Spanish Govt - which the men
said were contraband - and Ormsby Gore
had sent a wire to say there was nothing contraband on board
to which the reply of the Court was that he
had been misled - The world in truth
is topsy-turvy minded.

Forgive this long badly written letter
but I did not like to type

quite private - but not from you.

All good wishes to you both
for a v[er]y happy Christmas and New
Year - Always yours with love
