This picture was taken on the afternoon when this bunch walked over to Mandara, to visit the Clelands, Lorimers, and the Holcombs; went swimming; ate our picnic suppers; and walked home in the moonlight. We were about half way there when this was taken. From left to right we are: - Dr. Moore, Fay…
I have just gotten the print of this picture, which was taken at the Helouan on Xmas day. It is not very good of most of the girls. The sun was shining right into our faces. From let to right around the table we are: Miss Cullen, Clarice, myself, Betty Speer, Sara Adair, Evelyn McFarland, Edna…
Picture depicting a group of women standing outside of a building (possibly the American Mission) at Sidi Bishr; circa 1925. Dora Giffen is 2nd from end on right.
Do you see me in the pictures? (x) They were taken at Mandara, the day we took our picnic suppers along with us the first time I was there. Can you make out anyone else in the pictures? Lucile Pollock is right in front of me in this picture and little Isabel and Anna Moore are a little behind us.
Miss Paden gave me this yesterday. She took it this summer down at Victoria Station. I told her I was sending it to you, Mother, so she asked me to send you her love with it. We are Mrs. Coventry, Dora, Betty Speer, and Florence White, and we were on our way to the Dickenses when it was taken.
Christmas letter from Dora Giffen to her family in which she describes her work as a missionary and alludes to political dissatisfaction in Egypt.
This was taken at the zoo, in front of the giraffe pen. Do you see the giraffe in the picture? One corner of me got into the picture. Do you recognize my brown and tan voile dress? I do not know the names of all these girls but they are all dear girls.
Susannah was at our "at home" day last week so I had Clarice take this picture. Mother, I am wearing that georgette waist that you sent me last fall and I have received the most compliments on it. I myself think it is very pretty.
