Talk about snail mail! A card sent on December 23rd, 1914 from Alabama took 93 years to travel to what should have been a 750-mile journey to its final destination in Oberlin, Ohio.

              I learned that it can take a long time to mail a card, it took 93 years for the card to finally get to where it was supposed to be. It's very interesting that the card did get to the same house after it was sent off. But it is sad that Ethel Martin is dead now and they still got the letter.

                I learned that a Christmas card that was sent from Alabama, Nebraska arrived in Oberlin, Ohio in 93 YEARS.

                  I learned that from this article that some people don't read how far back that date was when Ethel sent it. If they did read thee date I don't know why they sent the mail because wouldn't they know that Ethel was dead??? Anyway I thought it was really cool/weird that they still had the letter after so long!!!!
