Found with this letter, in the spot where the photos were taped. Some photographs became detached over the years, so this isn’t confirmed. If you recognize the face or notice a mismatch, please let me know.

These two pages are shown together because they were photographed one after the other. That pairing hasn’t been confirmed.

Some words are cut off or covered in this photograph. A clearer scan will be added.

Spelling is kept exactly as written. [possibly: …] means a reading we aren’t sure of. Tap a photo to enlarge it.
