My dearest Uncle and Auntie, I am glad to be able to write to you again and hope that you received my Post Card and have cabled home. I take it for granted you know mother's address, Mrs. A. Pollard, 31 Leake Street, North Perth, W.A. My own address will not change, but I have set it out again Pte. F.D. Pollard 8308, 11th Australian Battalion, Kiregsgefangenenlager, Wahn (Rhlnd), Germany Then dear uncle I hope you have been able to send me some parcels, wait till I acknowledge receipt of the first after forwarding say two or three. There is one other thin, I want an advanced general Geology book irrespective of cost, also Geike's Geology, and if you remember I took my degree in Geology any good Bookseller will know what I want, and perhaps a pad or notebook. Now I have done with my wants and can say how anxiously I am waiting just to hear from you and how delighted I shall be just to see your handwriting once more. Remember me to Bert & Agnes and accept all loving greetings, your loving nephew (Sgd) Frank. P.S. Any tinned stuff, sweets and sox will be most welcome. PRISONER OF WAR |

31, Leake Street, North Perth, W. Australia July 20th 1917. Officer in Charge, Base Records— Dear Sir— Will you kindly let me know if you have my son's name, Private Frank D. Pollard No. 8308 (previously report missing) among the Prisoners of War? & please send particulars of same. About 3 weeks ago we received a cable from his uncle in London, saying he was a prisoner Germany When he was "missing" his name was omitted from the W.A. papers lists—although friends in Victoria wrote saying they saw the name in the Melbourne papers & I read the name myself in those papers. I am just thinking that his name may be omitted again. It makes it very awkward for me, as his allotment was specially left for us to pay liabilities in connection with the house. He gave up a good position as a Master in the Modern School, receiving £200. & the last 2 years, that he has been serving in the A.I.F. he would have had considerably more as he had just gained his B. Sc. Degree. I suppose you know best, but I think it a bit strange that his name has not been sent on. His father is only earning a small wage & we must send him parcels & also subscriptions to the British Red Cross. My son was missing April 16th, we received the notice, May 12th. It all seems so long between. Thanking you in anticipation. Yours faithfully A. Pollard |
