from your sister Gerda


Julen 1907 är Gustaf tillbaka i Galeton, Pa, efter att ha tillbringat en tid i North Carolina, se föregående inlägg (G.034.03). Hur länge han var borta är oklart. Det kan ha varit ett helt år. I november 1906 var han fortfarande på sin gamla adress i Galeton (box 113). I oktober 1907 var han i Mortimer, North Carolina. I december 1907, åter i Galeton, med ny postbox (297).

By Christmas 1907, Gustaf is obviously back in Galeton, Pa., after having spent some time in North Carolina - see the previous post (G.034.03). Going by the the postcards in the album, he might have been away for a whole year. In November 1906, he was still in Galeton (box 113). In October 1907, in Mortimer, N.C. In December 1907, back in Galeton, with a new postbox (297).
