At the front of the postcard : " Awful sorry you feel so badly. Just a fever of homesickness I suppose. [Written on his pants leg}. Sorry you are indisposed but cheer up! The worse is yet to come! I think a ‘coat sleeve sweat’ would do you good. Ha! Ha! [Drawing of a bird with the words" Got any new ideas?"]
