    This is a postcard that Cora apparently never sent. It is addressed to Miss Rhoda Ekum at Route 4, Viroqua. The message is My Dear Cousin Rhoda. This is my baby and her grandmothers. Vivian says many thanks for her doll she has a great time with it and she will try to remember you with something so you have it coming if you want get it before we come next summer but you will get it. Please write to me as I haven't very much time for writing. from Cora.

    The occasion is the baptism of Cora's daughter in November of 1917.
