Ethel [on exterior of envelope] Dear Dora: I am so glad that you are having such a fine time. How much we all miss you. Whenever we go anywhere there seems to be something lacking and it is nothing else but Dora. I should like very much to receive a card, at least, from you, dear. With best wishes for a very happy Christmas I am, Yours lovingly, Ethel
