.. Langehorne Town Hall Langhorne, PA. Added “e” is probably a typo unless it was spelled that way in the past. Posted 1922 from Langhorne

From Postcrosser in the Netherlands

Always assumed this to be January. And the squiggles at top maybe shorthand Posted 1909. I also have April in this set but have no information. Click to view entire postcard

…RR Station Morrisville PA.. unfortunately the stop no longer exists, though the trains still pass by. The last date I saw a schedule for - in the mid 1960s. Don’t know exactly when station stop eliminated & buildings razed

This postcard has something to do with playing cards & luck & was mailed from Berlin in 1904. Other than that, I have no idea what it’s saying on the card because it’s the old German & I can’t translate with Google

… Cornwells Heights St Elizabeth Convent. A Real Photo but not posted. Sender writes of attending retreat here. My understanding is that the Convent was sold. The stamp box suggests dates between 1924 & 1949. Not terribly helpful. Sender refers to parlor on first floor. Writes that she had lovely retreat. Bucks County. She probably bought a few cards & mailed them in envelope(s)

… BRICK HOTEL Newtown, Bucks County, PA. Not postally used. Early divided back, probably 1910 ish
