Dear Winifred
Your nice card to Sydney reached me here yesterday. When I returned from a side trip to Tasmania where we visited the old convict settlement and saw this church they built there. It is certainly a beautiful island. Now I'm going to New Zealand then back to Sydney in a change of order and date. Home June 25 as now planned.
Love from Elsie
