Annotation on reverse reads; '2.10.1915 Dear Martha, Just a card to let you see that I am getting quite fat. We were warned to be ready for the front so by the time you get this we hope to be well at work. I have been doing well here I was tucked off to help the C.M.S with the food. I will close now hoping this finds you all well so. Your loving cousin, Hugh Knight.'
