November 12,1912. When 18 mph seems like a reasonable speed limit.

Médéa le 13 Novembre 1912

Chers parents,

Nous allons reprendre notre correspondance de l’an dernier et vous écrire tous les dimanches, tantôt une carte, tantôt une lettre. J’écrirai Dimanche. Tous en bonne santé, Meilleurs baisers. Toujours sans nouvelles de Louis Pierre. Demandez-lui s’il a reçu notre carte.

L’auto marche très bien. Je suis prudent. Je ne dépasse pas 30 km à l’heure.

Medea November 13, 1912

Dear parents,

We are going to resume our correspondence from last year and write you every Sunday, sometimes a postcard, sometimes a letter. I will write you on Sunday. All in good health, Best kisses. Still without news from Louis Pierre. Ask him if he received our card.

The automobile works very well. I am very prudent. I won’t go over 30 km per hour.
