Piece of French heather and accompanying letter:

Lettter reads:

I am enclosing one or two wee souveniers, a sprig of French heather, a French franc note and a German bank note, nothing of value for we have no opportunity of getting that so far and I don't know when we will have the chance.
Meanwhile love to all
