Dear son first let me tell you that we are all well in good health that God gave us and we wish you the same. Dear son I received your letter and photographs of you, your bride and her family. I was very happy and it made me cry. Let God give me one more chance to see you and hug you. Dear son and daughter in law I wish you all the best in your future life your mother Ivka Radja.(page 1)
Dear brother!
I was very surprised and very happy by your letter and photographs you sent, because you didn’t say you are going to get married. Dear brother and sister in law I wish you all the best in your future married life. Your brother Mate Radja.
Dear brother and sister in law receive a greeting with great joy from your brother Josip, sister in law Marija, nephews, sisters Jandra, Marta, Cvita and their families, and from aunt and her family. (page 2)
Dear brother!
What are asking about the harvest, wheat was week and corn is for now good. It is dry now here if the rain does not fall in next few days it is not going to be good. Vineyards are good. Best wishes for your engagement and wedding. With respect and brotherly greetings Mate Radja.
Say hi to cousin Nikola from all of us and from sister Cvita and Joka and nephew and daughter in law.
