Oh yes, it is LC. I always feel very moved by stories from the first world war...I have a couple of embroidered postcards from then...one says..."from your daddy, somewhere in France"

Pussycat have you seen the show about the things people find in the houses they buy ? Some are letters like that, one was about the people that started Miracle Grow (plant food) the neighbors never knew. If you havent then never mind.
