Mr. Henri Torlotting
Feves, (Moselle) France

Dear Mr. Torlotting;

Your Morganville friends sent five CARE packages of garden seeds to Feves this week, one of which was sent to You. We are sending some more in a short time and wish you would distribute them amongst the citizens of Feves. We trust that your people can use these garden seed gifts of ours for the seeding of your spring gardens. We received the pictures of Feves, including the one of you and the school children and were very much pleased to receive them from you.

Please send me the names of all the school children in your school as we would like to write to them and also to send them some gifts.

One of our Morgonville girls is now living in Paris and she and her husband intend paying a visit to Feves sometime this spring. They take colored pictures and we hope to have some after their visit to your town of Feves.

Our best wishes to you and all in Feves.

Sincerely,

(signed)

Daniel J. Roenigk
Treasurer Morganville-Feves Committee

Dad - why not write this up from mine for yourself - would be more legible I believe.
