A letter and enclosure from my friend Barry Hall, then living in the Masai Mara in Kenya. For those who can no longer read handwriting, I transcribe:

23 Nov 91

Dear Tom and Val,

Fucking Christmas again init! How are things? The enclosed picture is a cibachrome print from an Xray – Local Massai(sic) went on a cattle raid to Tanzania was shot in the head, walked over 300ks back in to Kenya to hospital to have the arrow removed. The opperation(sic) was a success he went home a week later – was a bit put out – terrified in fact; by the picture of his head.

Thought you would like a print.

Life’s much the same – few commercials – Fishing lots and painting I’m happy to say – Family’s fine –

Love to you and Val.

Barry + Beth
