[Undated Christmas card from Lena’s mysterious friend Jennie]
Transcription:
(front) Your old friend Jennie
(back) Hope you are both
well and will
enjoy your Christmas
[Since the card references “you both” I would assume the card was written before John’s death in 1927.]

As ever your friend
Elizabeth E. Morris
Editor’s note: I believe the postmark to be 1916. The card has a copyright date of 1915. Lena and John did not move from their farm into Connersville until the 1920s, I believe. The postcard is still addressed to the R.F.D.

My Dear Lena. How are
you these days? I’ve been
real sick since I saw
you. In bed almost
a week with some kind
of sharp pains in liver.
Still under Dr. Spelmans
treatment, but much
better, Hope you will
have a fine Xmas.
Will I see you on Sun[?] 18
With Love—Bal
