Summary
[edit]DescriptionPostcard from Nurse Margaret Ripley in Dunkirk to her mother, sent 1 May 1915 (6283299097).jpg |
Sent by a nurse, Margaret Ripley, to her mother back in England. As far as I can tell (corrections and additions welcome) this reads: "1.5.14 Such a lovely day for 1st May. Had a nice walk. 9 patients of mine have gone out today only 12 left now. Clothes are getting very warm for this weather especially cloaks. Have not had time to finish letter. Todd alright & Sister better both start again Monday. Horrid not being able to fix about coming home. Miss E has never written. Post this in morning 2.5.14 Love Mar" It seems certain that the date she has written of 1914 is wrong - the postmark clearly shows '15 and all the information ties in well with other cards she sent in late April 1915. She made the same mistake in a number of earlier cards in the year. For more details of the story behind this album see www.flickr.com/photos/whatsthatpicture/sets/7215762769463... |
