I always wonder how Sibyl and Fred - former medical missionaries - might have tried to help Kathleen's father, a Christian Scientist.  He died the following September.

I like seeing Sibyl sending a postcard showing a night-blooming cereus, because I associate night-blooming cereuses with Sibyl's daughter, AG.

June 6/33

Dear Mrs. Farmer,

I had thought to write you long before this.  We have been wondering about your dear husband and do hope he is gaining some strength.  We have had a fine trip so far, plan to arrive at Atlanta next Tuesday evening, the 13th.  Visit for a few days with Will and hope the four children will be able to go with us to Woods Hole.  We are very glad to know you and your family.  Please give our kindest greetings to Kathleen, Ruth + Mr. Farmer.  We have spoken frequently of our visit with you.  Sincerely, Sibyl Stokey

Fred and Sibyl were in Florida visiting the parents of Fred's first wife, Mabel.

We have had a fine trip so far, plan to arrive at Atlanta next Tuesday evening, the 13th.  Visit for a few days with Will and hope the four children will be able to go with us to Woods Hole.
It looks as though that plan worked out - see: We got here last night soon after ten.  We drove about 400 miles yesterday.

3.
Please give our kindest greetings to Kathleen, Ruth + Mr. Farmer.
Kathleen had been staying in Savannah, helping out with her father's illness.  See:

I wonder if Sibyl chose a picture of a night blooming cereus because she knew Kathleen liked them - see:
5.
I'm thinking that the background of the picture must be a screen behind the tree, because the night-blooming cereus really does bloom at night.
