Dear Peekay,

Much news from the war zone. I have been to see Mr. Andrews. He is the lawyer who comes into the library and only takes out books on birds. He read your notes and he said, “By Jove! This places a different complexion on everything.” He seemed very hopeful he could get to the military judge when he arrives from Pretoria next Wednesday. He agrees with me your notes are excellent. “Too good,” he said. “Who will believe a seven-year-old can express himself in such detail?”

That’s the problem he thinks we may have. He knows about your inability to speak. But he’s hit on a clever plan. He wants you to take an intelligence test, a written test in front of the judge so the judge can make up his own mind. Mr. Andrews has been to see your mother but she won’t hear of your having anything to do with the case. But she did say she’d pray about it so all is not lost. It’s a bit of a problem really, but we’re not beaten yet. I’m sure British justice will come through in the end, even if we have to write personally to Mr. Winston Churchill.

Can you come and see me when you get out of hospital? Keep your chin up!
