GREENWOOD-028 Back

Printed on back: My pioneer home shown in the illustration, located in Pioneer Park, Puyallup, Washington, was our abiding place for many long years of sweet memory. Here some of our children were born to us and all our family grew up to manhood and womanhood, and small wonder many tender recollections remain. The ivy vine, planted forty years ago upon the birth of a child, now covers the form of the old house completely, supported by fresh framework (maintained by the city of Puyallup) which will preserve the shape of the pioneer abode long after all vestige of the original relic has disappeared. Depth of the alluvial deposit under the ivy stock 144 feet; size of ivy stock at base 9 inches in diameter.
