Mr. And Mrs. S. H. "Barney" Manor with their daughter in the foreground in Millers, Nevada. Handwritten description provided on back of image: "Barney and I and Jo. I am some thing here. Only weigh 98 - but weight 103 again now. Wonderful. Mr. and Mrs. Sh. H. Manor and daughter. Barney' a nickname from Barney Oldfield, because he had such a heavy foot when driving. Barney's real name was Sam Houston Manor. As of 2/20/80 Barney was still living at Hawthorn and Round Mountain, 90 yrs. old. He worked for Tonopah & Goldfield RR-sect(?)hand. Their marriage was a love match. Barney had sandy red hair. He had a slight shake in his hands as I do, and because I had red hair, too, everyone teased that I really was his daughter. This photo probably taken at Millers, Nevada. Quotation and information told to Elizabeth Nelson Patrick, 2/20/80."
Of course this is more serious than our darling is as a rule but she was trying to understand the artist's [aunties?]!! I am sure you will need consolation when this reaches you but rejoice for us that your loss is our gain,. One great objection to our good old U.S.A. is its size. I really believe Mary and Joan will be happy and comfy here. It is almost country life and we will do all we can for them. The [Addisons?] is written on the back of the holiday postcard.
