River = Assiniboine

Posted March 2, 1906, this embossed card by Novelty Souvenir Co. was sent to Dorothy but intended for "Harry", as the letter states: "Dear Dorothy, I am sending this P.P.C. for Harry. I sent one to you at the beginning of the week. Your letter to H arrived safely yesterday. He is working at the other end of City, (still for the C.P.R. you know) therefore is feeling too tired to wrie when he gets home. He thought you would be anxious if you did not get a reply as quickly as previous letters . He will write to you next week. Fondest love from us both, H + E." Exactly where the photo is on the Assiniboine is unclear, although my guess would be that that is the Main Street Bridge -- not sure, but if it were the case then "ice leaving Assiniboine" would be literally true.

Mailed on February 4, 1914 to Miss Fraser, c/o Miss Charlton, 138 Allcroft Rd, Gospel Oak N.W., London, England. Nice view of Fort Rouge Park. Valentine & Sons card no. 109,521.

Valentine & Sons card no. 105.962, unused.

Russell Lang & Co. card no. 325, presumably a reissue of a Warwick Bros. & Rutter card. Postmarked at Winnipeg May 19, 1905 and addressed to E. F. Wilson, The Dumbarton, So. Pierce Street, Nashua, New Hampshire with the above message. Steele & Co. marking: A60?

This is what is known as Armstrongs Point, south west of the City. This is all frozen over now. Thermometer Reg[isters] 27 deg. of frost tonight. The Ice is about 18" thick; it will average 4 + 5 ft. You see the Cross on the picture. This is Miss Spence's house made fully modern this spring. We have done the painting. The picture shows the River fully 15 ft. above the ordinary level." This message is across the entire back so there is no indicate of sender's or recipient's names. On the front is noted, "These Photos were printed in England". No indication of the publisher. It is an undivided back card.
