Description

This postcard features a color illustration of the Natchez Charity Hospital in Natchez, Mississippi, a white, three story building with dormers and a cupola on the roof. Four square, white columns are along the front, center entrance of the hospital. Trees on the hospital lawn partially obscure the view of the left and right ends of the hospital. The title of the card is printed in the upper left of the image. The back of the card is addressed to Dr. Reuben T. Clark in Jackson, Mississippi. The card is postmarked Natchez, Mississippi, August 16, 1911 and a green, one cent George Washington postage stamp is placed in the upper right corner. An inscription is written sideways on the left half of the card. [see transcription field]
