6 be some adequate punishment for such as he. Your daughter Helen looks well and happy I am glad to see in this photograph
of her, and as though she were as much at home in the desert as her father. I hope your anxiety is at an end. It seems to

With warm regards, sincerely yours Katharine Hooker 03901
