Additional Notes
"Lanacster, July 8
Dear G,
You did not write and let me know whether you got home all OK. It is fly killing hot here I suppose it is the same in Phila. Will came from his wedding trip last Thursday. We are all well.
Margaret
Do you recognize this bridge. We were down on the 4th. There was a terrible thunder storm on the 4th. Our boat was destroyed. M."
Postmarked July 8, 1908, Lancaster, PA
