To the Ministry of Pensions.
I was so glad to hear yesterday that my letter of the 2nd of last month had been duly received. I was beginning to get quite anxious about it. In reply to your inquiry I have the honour to state (again) that I was (a) demobilised. I mentioned this, you know, last January. But perhaps you have forgotten? It is rather a long while ago.
M. C. Broke, Capt.
P.S.—I don't mind a bit how you spell my name and all that. But our postman is getting wild. And you know what workers are.

To Mr. C. Bink.
I am directed to acknowledge your letter of 11/5/20. In order to facilitate this Department's investigations into your claim, please say if you are in possession of Army Form Z.3.
Cuthbert Rutt,
for Ministry of Pensions.
