Sharing a letter written by 7-year-old Billy Stanbridge (Stanbridge-77) after he was evacuated from London to Beacon's Bottom (Buckinghamshire) at the start of WWII. The Newell family cared for Billy for about 4 years, and he never forgot their kindness. This letter shows his fondness for their son Leslie (Butler-29702) who took Billy under his wing. Sadly, Leslie was killed in action in the Netherlands on 22 November 1944. Click here for the image details page or here for the full-sized version (756 x 783).
