Text of the postcard: "Dear Miss Shaw: I am getting along very well teaching. Certainly miss the Library and Reading Room. It seems to me that I almost read as many books on Economics for Review Marks as we have books in our Library. I hope all goes as well with you all as you wish. A.L. Bramlett Derita N.C."
