- Translated caption reads: [ALGIERS - Hospital of Dey - Palm trees alley.] Recto signature reads: "Mme Berthe." Manuscript on verso reads: "Ma bonne Sophie - Donnez-nous de vos nouvelles de temps en temps- Je vous souhaite de bonnes Pâques bien joyeuses pour tous et bonne santé, chez nous tout le monde va bien. Je vous embrasse de tout coeur. Berthe Leclerc. Comment va la politique avez-vous du bénéfice ? au moins avec la république, je ne sais si chez vous la vie est comme ici mais toutes les vivres ont doubles de prix. Nous avons eu un hiver splendide heureusement." Verso translated reads: [My dear Sophie- Give us some news from time to time- I wish you a very happy Easter and good health, here everybody is fine. I kiss you from the bottom of my heart. Berthe Leclerc. How is the politic, do you benefit something out of it ? At least with the republic, I don't know if where you live life is like here, but all the goods's price doubled. Luckily, we had a splendid winter.]
