868 William Mary Schifferli to F. X. Schifferli 1908
A postcard from William Mary Schifferli at Innsbruck addressed to his father F. X. Schifferli at his place of employment: Editor Buffalo Volksfreund, 46-48 Broadway, Buffalo, N.Y. U.S.A.
William at this time was sick with tuberculosis, and would soon return from school in early June 1908 to the family home in Buffalo NY to convalesce, but would pass away on 27-Jul-1908, a few months after this card was written.
Received the g[…]s from Leo many thanks. Am getting better and stronger day by day - sleep with windows open now. Hope you telegraphed the Regent “Reisen” because I can’t tell you how anxious I am to get home. I won’t be well when I get there but I’ll get well quicker there than here. Congratulations to Agnes on 24 May. Best Regards & love to all
William.
