Postcard messageOn front of card: "Say Eva this is an old picture of Nutana the side of the river we live on of course. It is a lot bigger now but this is the house we live in [our own?]." On back: "My dear little Eva, How are you all this hot weather. I've been going to write you for so long. I got your dear little letter and will write a letter to you soon. Mr. and Miss Hall have been here for two months and a little cousin. Franklin and Mildred have had so good a time we've been so busy, on the go all the time. Kiss all little sisters and brothers for me & tell your Pa and Ma I will write after the folks go home. We are all well hope you are all the same. Please now drop a line when you can [?] you do write so well it pleased me so much. Your loving sister Anna.
