I would be grateful for help reading a handwritten Yiddish letter from 1921-22. It is a page from a file in the Canadian Jewish Archives (Montreal) about a group of Jewish war orphans brought to Toronto in 1921. It appears to be written by a young woman in Toronto, and the stamp at the bottom looks like it says "Sept 16". The three images show the top, middle and end of the page.

I can only make out single words. A full translation would be wonderful, but even a partial reading or a rough sense of what it says would help. I am researching my family's history, and this may relate to my aunt.

Thank you very much.
Alan Kruger
