A note written by a class, to its teacher. Must date from sometime before the Second World War. "Dear Master, we are so sorry that you are going to leave us. Even though we were often quite naughty and difficult to speak to, you were always patient with us until we were obedient again. Sometimes you had to detain us at school, but... that was always our own fault, and there was never anyting you could do about. Neither rain nor wind bothered you, loyal as you were to teach us. Less than one hous is there left and than it is over, and you will go and teach other childer. Bye Master! Good-bye." I wonder if it was a bit tongue in cheek?
