    Charles Hendrickson is seated with Arthur in his lap and Martha behind him. The year is about 1913, a year before Cora came to live with the Hendicksons for three months. The original is a postcard from Martha to Cora but apparently mailed in an envelope because there is no stamp or address on the card. The note on the card, in pencil with somewhat childish writing, is addressed to Cora Anderson and says, "Dear Cora suppose you think I have forgotten you but I think of you often dear Cora I know I ought to write but I am so busy it seems I never get done hope you will come to see me next summer stay all summer Dear Cora write to me your Auntie Martha."

    The woman on the left is unknown. Martha is in the middle, Anna on the right. Odd personal decorations: perhaps it's the Fourth of July. This is probably from the mid to late 1880s. Cora's annotation on the back is "& friend Aunt Martha My Mother."
