Miss Helen Seasholtz was in Millstone, a small borough on the Millstone River of Somerset County in central New Jersey.

Originally known as “Somerset Courthouse”, the community witnessed significant military activity during the American Revolution.

Today, a large Historic District preserves a remarkable number of buildings in the borough.

Miss Seasholtz was living in the home of Mrs. J. Wyckoff; we don’t know if Helen was boarding there, was a relative of Mrs. Wyckoff, or was employed within the household.

In March of 1910, Helen received an Easter postcard from her friend, Emma..

Emma mailed the postcard from a post office in Pennsylvania – I cannot discern the place from the few indistinct characters in the postmark.

The face of the postcard displays a lovely medallion painting of crowded forest growth at the edge of a watery expanse.

The scene is bordered by large blossoms.

A printed legend proclaims, “A Joyful Easter”.

On the reverse, the sender acknowledges a recent postcard from Helen.

Emma tells Helen, “I was glad to hear from you.”

In other news, “J.P. is well – I see him quite often, Ha! Ha!”

I suspect that J. P. may be a beau of Emma’s,

Emma is “just getting over another bad cold…”

One hopes that Emma and Helen, along with Mrs. Wyckoff and J. P. enjoyed a wonderful Easter.

The postcard was preserved in very good condition throughout the lifetime of Helen.
