I wonder if, through your paper, you could help me find an old friend of mine. The last time I saw him was 43 years ago.

His name is Donald Howlett. I would be very pleased if he would get in touch with me.

I understand that he is still living in Liskeard, or very near, and was seen in Liskeard on Saturday, September 11.

When I last saw him, my surname was Ellis and my family lived in Tremar Coombe, St Cleer.

My telephone number is Cheltenham (01242) 232951 or mobile no 0831 756112.
