DEVIL’S DEN LEDGE. One of the natural landmarks that attracts attention of tourists is the immense ledge of rocks in front of Round Top. It furnished shelter for Confederate sharp-shooters who were picking off the gunners at the batteries on Little Round Top. The barricade of one is yet pointed out in the rear. He had been killed by the concussion of a shell which exploded at the crevice of the rock against which his head was leaning and when found, there was not a mark on his body.

“The Winter Playground of America.”
Constructed at a cost of $1,500,000 at the edge of the city of San Antonio, this dam is across a dry channel, which drains the rainfall from a wide area of hilly country and the only outlet of which is the San Antonio river, over which there are forty bridges within the city limits. This dam is for flood prevention, but has been made one of the most attractive drives in the city, with clever lighting effects.

Dear (??)— Fri. night—
We are camped tonight just out of Springfield, Ohio. Tho't may be might make it in G.C. but couldn't. Some place there’s just a steady stream of cars & the pavement so narrow to have to pass them & so many buses & trucks & wagons. The country today has all been real prosperous looking. The weather hasn’t cooled much yet. Leonard is getting pretty restless & I am so tired tonight I can hardly stand it. Haven’t had any flats or anything today.

Dear friends:
We are at last located here for the summer unless called back to Kansas. We were so grieved at the deep sorrow that has come to you in Mr absence. So sorry I could not have been there to have done something for you all, but you do indeed have our deepest sympathy. It was very hot when we first came but the last two days have been fine.

This Mission was built in 1730, and is in an almost perfect state of preservation. The chapel is used for mass every morning. Located within two miles of the heart of the San Antonio business district, it is one of the chain of Missions built by the early settlers for the promulgation of the Christian faith, and for protection from the Indians.

Dear friend Phil— Haven’t much space to write on here but will try to make the most of it. So you haven’t went to many dances lately; well you surely should be in my condition. I’ve been going nearly steady for the last two weeks to celebrations. It certainly is getting plenty cold in this locality lately. Day before yesterday it was 30 below. Plenty cold for up here I think. Did you enjoy yourself for Xmas and was Santa good to you? He treated me pretty badly, ha ha! I’ll tell you later. Hoping to hear from you quick. Hugs.
(from top edge) Excuse me for not sending you my greeting but I arrived in Fergus too late to send anything as the country roads are now (??).
(from side edhe) If this card reaches you in time I am sincerely wishing you one grand New Years.

SECOND MISSION, BUILT 1718,
SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS—55
Mission San Jose was the second of several Missions named after St. Joseph, built in 1718 by the Franciscan Monks, and was used in converting the Indians. It was also used as a place of refuge from hostile Indians. The fine carving on the facade of the main entrance is conceded by Experts to be one of the finest specimens of ancient carving extant.
