Letter from Prince Henry Emiko of Nigeria

25 April 1957

From: 1957 To: 1957

A handwritten air mail letter from Prince Henry Emiko in Nigeria to Honora Grimmer (this letter is addressed from Sapele, another town in Nigeria): "Dear Miss Honora, Thank you for your air letter which reached me on the 18th instant. Including your good wishes to me on my new career. I am happy to hear that your father is a motor engineer too. Don't you see how things go smoothly. Congrats to my friend Rosemary. She had passed with flying colours. As my mind is at rest now I shall try to draft her sooner. Please may I know if you are living together with your Parents. How did you spend the Easter holidays in Ampthill? Anyway I spent my very well. I enjoyed the holidays - with my colleagues in the School. I want you to do one special thing for me, that is you should try to send me the sand of England whether distance makes difference. Try to send me a snapshot of yours in your response to my letter. I proud with you here too much so my friends will be much interested if they see your snapshot. Greetings to all, I am, Yours sincerely"
