Dear Ellen:
We have seen many donkey carts like this. Every little farm has a donkey instead
of a small car. We had a long ride all over the Lakes of Killarney this am. 14 miles
rowed R.D.5 by 4 husky young me. Weather very nice here. They have had the wettest
summer for years. All OK. Found letters from Very & Eva when we arrived here. J.G.S."
Good condition with rough top edge and one pinhole, and use. See photos.
