| Transcript | M.J.M Buffalo N.Y. [New York?] Dec. 28, 1905 Dear William, With joy I welcome the glad New Year and hasten to offer you my heartfelt wishes. May God grant you health and peace, yes everthing that can make happy (sic). May the sweet Infant Saviour bless you, and grant all my wishes for your welfare. Fervently will I implore the Divine Child Jesus to spare for many, many years to come, the life of my dear nephew, and his dear, good wife Dorothy. And especially give you good health in the New Year, because that is surely one of the greatest benefits in this life. Please dear William and Dorothy, accept these heartfelt wishes of Your true loving aunt, Sr. [Sister?] Mary Mamerta, 219 Broadway. P.S. Dear Willie, it pleased me very much to receive a letter from you and to hear from Dorothy and your dear little Raymond. And also, that you all were enjoying good health. May you all enjoy good health now also, as it is quite a time since I received your letter; but had no time to answer it. How are your dear sisters Innocentia and Antonina, are they enjoying good health? And your folks at home? One of our sisters took my picture, as you know, we do not go out to have our picture taken, so I have a chance to give you one, with this letter. Please inform me, when you have received it and oblige. Sr. [Sister?] Mary Mamerta. (Transcribed by Tony Flanagan.) |
