Postcard from Margaret Ripley to her sisterDescription supplied on Wikimedia Commons: Sent by a nurse, Margaret Ripley, to her sister back in England. As far as I can tell (corrections and additions welcome) this reads: "18.12.14 I do hope you have not sent any parcel down to B [aluding to an earlier card which said they were heading to Bordeaux]. We may never get there in fact we hope not. I am going to lunch with one of our ['???'] and she is taking me over the maternity[?] hospital afterwards. Received Sphere & your card last night. Had a band of tiny[?] sailor boys play here yesterday for patients (from orphan school). Have forgotten to write to Canada for Xmas must do it now. Mar"Contributed by:
