An elevated view of Randolph-Macon Woman's College in Lynchburg, with long red-brick buildings and dark roofs set among lawns, curving walks, and dense green trees. Smaller buildings and a road run along the lower edge of the grounds. The college was founded in 1891 and was a well-established women's college by the time this card was mailed.
Josephine B. writes to a friend in New Church on Virginia's Eastern Shore that she is having a grand time and has seen a few other "Eastern Shore girls" there.
