Now the family of a schoolgirl who knitted clothes for troops has received a letter written by a grateful soldier. The letter in which soldier John Wheldon-Williams expressed his gratitude to teenager Pat Moore (below). One beneficiary of her contribution was Lance Corporal John Wheldon-Williams, who served in the Italian Campaign in 1944. However, Pat never received the letter, having moved from the correspondence address by the time it arrived. After finding the letter tucked inside a volume that came into their possession, the World of Books Group launched an appeal.
