P.S.--I think I like "Bink" the least of my new names. But perhaps you
will think of a better one for my next letter.
_August 1st, 1920._
To Mr. M. Brooks.
Your letter of 1/7/20 has been duly received, and I am to inquire
whether you submitted a claim for disability pension at the time of
your demobilisation. If so, please state date.
CUTHBERT RUTT,
for Ministry of Pensions.
_August 2nd, 1920._
To the Ministry of Pensions.
With reference to your letter of yesterday, the answer is in the
affirmative. By the way I think we went into that little matter too
last January. But, of course, you can't think of everything. Excuse
me mentioning it. Do you think you could get my pension through by the
30th inst? It is my birthday, and I would like to have my boots soled
and heeled.
