Mrs. May Wright-Sewell: President International Council of Women Indianapolis Ind.
My dear Mrs. Sewell:
Your previous letter, call ing me to my place in the council. is li[ke] a sweet note from a far away [land] of kindred music, - It is a torch of yearning homesickness that comes over me, when I think of that body of beloved women who will gather in the days of sunny springtime and live all over again.
