You are a good worker, Michael, and have a good head on your shoulders and you'll get on well in America I know. There are Travellers in the south part of America on the Atlantic side come from Irish Travellers during the famine who still know the language and keep the traditions but I'd say that's a good distance from New York.

Good luck. God Bless.

Your father,

Greta,

A funny thing happened today that you can help figure out. Mam and I took the horse and cart into town as we needed a few things too big to carry. We left it outside the pub and who is waiting for us when we come out but Mr. Riordan the postmaster. He said Dermot Ward left an envelope for us and we thought grand he's finally decided to get in touch with Michael. But the envelope is not for Michael it's for us and inside is the town where he expects to be all of August to get in touch with news of the baby. What baby Mam asks and the postmaster says the baby your daughter Johanna Cahill and the tinker Michael Ward are having together at the end of July. You know what Mr. Riordan thinks of the tinkers.
