POSTCARD Date: Not Posted, but handwritten note dates it as June 11, 1911. Publisher / Photographer: Unidentified Here is a rough translation of the message, from the original French: CARTE POSTALE St. Norbert, Manitoba June 11, 1914 Monsieur George Gratton Montmartre [Saskatchewan] Dear friend, In response to your good postcard that I received there already a few days I hope you are still good. It is the same for all of us here. The temperature is very nice, only our work is not as advanced as yours. All the same we hope to have a good harvest. Nothing new has St Norbert in the moment. With friendship. Your friend Albertine. Notation: Here is an image of the reverse side. (Click on it to enlarge.)

Here is an image of the reverse side. (Click on it to enlarge.)
