"Dearest Mary,
...This is a picture of four of my kiddies who dramatized the old story of The Three Bears for an entertainment. I wish you might see them. They are darlings. Grandfather talks of going E. this summer and tho I get quite thrilled don;t know if it will happen. I am crazy to see you all again. Do write soon. Heaps of love. Ellen.
St.Paul, Minn.: April 21, 1913."
