Reverse side of Damstones postcard with halfpenny stamp. The message reads
"Dear Joseph
We are enjoying ourselves immense the weather is simply lovely.
We went to Chapel this morning its fine there was a baptism. Mr. Watterworth took us for a walk this afternoon
there's some lovely walks in fact everything is simply splendid he
took us to see Bob Heaton (the Sutton Poet) he recited for us. We can see 13 villages from
the ravenstones we can also see courters with the aid of glasses.
We had a hard pull up on Sat. but tea was ready when we landed. I am quite looking
forward to taking you for a walk on Tues. If I am a bit late you must take to the left from
the station, past Sutton Baptist but of course I shall be there all being well. We are
going to Skipton tomorrow if fine. With Love from Sis."
