In a very late return for your card, thanks for
the same. Did you think I was never going to
send one in return? I have had so many to
answer.
Yours truly,

1913 Postcard from Grace to sister in Plattsburgh, NY

Dear Friend:

Mother got home yesterday. It
seems good to have her home
too. The flowers are fine. The
first I have seen this year. When
papa came home I asked if you
had any and he said you did. I
was awfully glad to get them
and I thank you. This picture
is our house.
