Date from postmark: Jun 30, 1909; mailed from River Falls Wisconsin; green 1¢ Franklin stamp. Text printed on verso: "Taggart's Drug Store, Importers and Publishers, River Falls, Wisconsin Made in Germany." Probably printed by C.E. Wheelock & Co., Peoria, Ill. Message: Addressed to Mrs. J.P. Lindblad, Prescott, Wisconsin, Box 61. "Dear Mama - Will drop you a few lines to night to let you know I am well and hope you all the same. I would come home to-night if I could, I am so homesick. I guess I will have to be out here about 7 weeks as examinations for the teachers are to be the 7th week. Probably we will have to go to Ellsworth to write teacher's examinations. I hope not tho. I only wish I could come home. Ruth."
