People

Black and white postcard of cottage with several people sitting on a veranda. Inset of Russell H. Conwell. The reverse is a note to 'Mrs. Bradley' signed by Ella Anable (1856-1935) The message reads errors in text retained]:"Dear Mrs. Bradley. How are you this winter? I hope you are enjoying good health. How is your hearing? The last time you was here, I ment to have seen you again before you went away. I think of you when I look down to the old home. It looks lonesome. It is not finished and wasn't be for some time. I never see work go so slow. Miss Mae Cassin can fix it very nice but I can look down on her because I am on higher ground. They is a lot of sickness all around us. The school is closed the teacher has the pneumonia. In the fall and first of the winter I had 7 and 8 in the family. With love, Ella Anable

The photograph is taken from the corner of the house, showing the wrap around veranda. The house at 42 Conwell Road is owned in 2019 by Mark Shapiro and Pam Thompson.
