Summary edit

Description

Sent by a nurse, Margaret Ripley, to her mother back in England.

As far as I can tell (corrections and additions welcome) this reads: "8.5.15 Just received the parcel - at last! Quite given up hopes of it. Such lovely weather so warm had lovely walk yesterday & bought nice flowers at florists garden so cheap, heaps of lily of valley. Letter just come - the parcel from FRX [French Red Cross] I suggested stopping. Please send other things I asked for at once as Depot is closing. Send parcel to letter address. Best love to Dud when you write. Mar Telegrams do not go [???] to Paris"
