Addressee: Miss Adile J. Godoy | #36 Walenburgerweg | Rotterdam | Holland
Location: Hang Far Low (per Judy Yung's San Francisco's Chinatown).
Message: [Long message in tiny script in front white border:] Dear Adile: No more luxurious Chinese restaurants here, all went in the devouring flames. Not a vestige of Chinatown was left. I hope it will not be rebuilt in the same district, for it really spoilt that neighbohood. Suppose you have no Chinese where you are. Here, beside we have also thousands of Japanese who are overrunning the City, taking up all the business and trades of the whites. Fond love from Alena [?] and Danile [?].
