      Postcard rrom her grandmother Margaret Todd (nee Spiers) in Castle Douglas, Dumfries , Scotland probably early 1900s. Grandma Todd died in 1919 aged 87.

      My dear Bella,

      Just a card but sent with much love from us all.
      Grand Pa and Auntie.
      We often think Australia's ??? , but also see how safe you are all getting on.
      Well, what are you doing still at home.
      Our friends are still here. Auntie is your true street mother (Most likely referring to her daughter and Bella's aunt Joan Todd who was known as Aunty Dan).
      With love from Grannie<hr>
