Description

Back of postcard; personal letter sent to St. Williams, Ontario, Canada

The Armistice had been declared on November 11, 1918. Lane is obviously referring to that: “I received your cable of congratulations and thank you for the same. Will write in a few days. It has been raining for the last twenty-four hours. G.R. Lane.”
