Caption: Nov. 11th. Dear Mother and Brother: We're off at last our boat being delayed two days because of a landslide in B.C. delaying the trains. We have had a pleasant time with Rene? Saw Stanley Park yesterday. Rene and Margaret and Dick are all well and happy. There are 13 in our party and perhaps 10 more to join us in Japan. We shall not be lonesome unless we think you are. This is our boat. We put this in Victoria. Love to all, Myrtle and Fred. See all items with this value
