Dear Miss Meyers,

I think this is such a pretty view. This beach is about 1½ miles from where we live. We often walk down to it.

The church on the other card with the tower is where we attend (Church of England). I was confirmed there last Wednesday, Jan. 28th 1914.

Hoping to hear from you soon.

King regards, Isabel Sanderson
