My dear mother
I beg you, receive on this fortunate day, which saw the birth of the object of my family, the ample congratulations of my heart I desire that its rebirth will procure for me all my life, the sweet pleasure of holding you in my arms, and of assuring you of my respectful feelings with which I am forever, your daughter Amelie Benman

Very good condition.
