Notes about the item: This item seems to be a post card where you do not write a personal message but rather strike out those sentences that you do not wish to include. The following lines have been stuck out by the writer of this card - the line beginning 'I have been admitted ...' and all lines until the line beginning 'Letter follows ...'; the word 'lately' has also been struck out. Transcription begins with the word NOTHING below (which is in all caps on the item).

NOTHING is to be written on this side except the date and signature of the sender. Sentences not required may be erased. If anything else is added the post card will be destroyed.
