About the Work
TRANSCRIPTION:
Dear Dorothy,
Thanks very much for your nice long letter written from Grandma’s
Fannie is a splendid writer isn’t she. She went to the university in Manchester for 3 years & studied ‘Economics’ & some other subject. She is clever, but not a bit proud of herself. So you needn’t be frightened of her she is very [illeg.] in your N.Z people.
Love from Edith (top left)
