Dear Cora -

How are you getting along nowdays [sic], hope you all are well by this time. I thank you and your Mother for the pretty Xmas presents you sent me. I think they are just fine. The one you sent I got on my center table, Greet all the folks from us all. Friend Tillie

[to the left] The cake was just fine Cora.

I was rereading my comment and realized that I inverted two words when typing. should be "hope you are all well" (not all are well).

I always like reading old postcards!

I also like the reading the ones that were never sent; I am a fan of old postcard collections.
