My Dearest,
I was so done, I missed you on Tuesday, but was glad you saw brother. I came home from S. on Saturday and brought the little dear boy back. He does think such a lot of me to and heard Auntie S. is coming on Tuesday. I was undone. I could have cried about my tiny heart but good bye came. I am longing to come back on Friday. Have got a toothache.

Caption: Gutting Herrings

Another postcard for the tourists. The Scottish Herring Girls look happy enough, but can you imagine the smell? much less the filthy, backbreaking work crouched over that vat, gutting herrings out in all weather.
