Mrs. John L. Pratt Box 118 Fredericksburg, Virginia
Dear Mrs. Pratt,
Thank you for your kind letter and check on account.
We have just finished packing and will be out by tomorrow. Let's hope it is all for the best!
We both want to thank you for your good wishes, and to express our sincere gratitude for having had the good fortune to acquire a friend like you.
We do hope to be able to see you every now and then. If we go down south, we might even surprise you for a short visit. (should we decide to drive).
With kindest regards, and very best wishes for the truly happiest New Year you have ever had, and with love from the family,
Sincerely, Alexander S. Schaffer [signed] Alexander S. Schaffer
