About this postcard

A broad gravel walk curves through Robbins Park beneath mature shade trees, with lawns and a low fence beyond. A few small figures, one with a child's carriage, are visible in the distance under the canopy. Waltham was a busy manufacturing city in this period, and the park offered a shaded public retreat near Crescent Street.

Dear Mabel I suppose I am in for another lec- ture from you for not answering your card until this late day. Did you meet your feet yet? I am getting used to being alone in the office and the time simply flies. Hope to see you soon. F. M. E.
