?How to say it in French?

People bought phrase books for soldiers and sailors to raise money for war charities. Many troops would never have learned French or travelled abroad, so phrase books were very useful. Most of the inscription in this is unreadable, but someone sent it ?with love? to Albert Clark. TD4972 given by Ruth Morgan
