Posted at Kenton May on Nov. 5, 19-- to Miss Daisy Rattray, Little Gourdas, Fyvie, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.

Dear Daisy, Just a P.C. to say we have arrived here safe but feels some tired after the long journey. We stayed in this town one night. I am writing Elsie a long letter so you will all get a read of it. I sent your mother a P.C. of the boat. Also Elsie, I hope you are all well. We have lots of snow here so it is real cold. I hope you will write me some times. Write to this address + I will get it where ever I am. Best love to all from us both your loving Aunty Doddie."
