Message: Hello, This is from a cherry tree. Isn't it? It’s the 2d. The trip through the dear valley should give me the rest of the year apparent in the penmanship of the home. It is still a family home and they have and the style is all furnishing. Feeling yours, Mary. John M. Lake 58 Fairview Avenue Stratford, Conn.
