Location:	Sheffield
Date:	1940/12/18
Date Period:	1940-1959
Notes:	... how sorry all friends of Sheffield have been to hear of the severe air attacks to which the city has recently been subjected. Since I know the Sheffielders I am sure that you are all doing what the people of other bombed cities are doing - repairing the damage and going on with what you have to do. We all hope however, that you will be spared further attacked ... Original at Sheffield City Archives CA538/59.
