Robert Francis Scharff to Edward S. Morse 1918 Postcard This postcard dated 1918 was sent by Robert Francis Scharff to Edward S. Morse with a return address of Irish National Museum in Dublin. \"O.H.M.S.\" stands for \"On His/Her Majesty\'s Service.\" It\'s an indication that the correspondence or item is official and sent or used in the course of government or official business. This marking was commonly used on envelopes, letters, or postcards to signify that the contents were related to governmental or official matters. The letter is addressed to Prof. Edward S. Morse / Salem / Mass / U.S.A. It reads: Dear Prof. Morse,I am very grateful to you for kindly sending me reprints of two very interesting articles which show that you are just as keen and active as you were when I had the pleasure of meeting you at your hospitable house in Salem about 7 or 8 years ago. Your idea as published in this Sunday Herald is quite a novel one and appears to me very good. Yours truly, R. F. Scharff For much more on this card, I refer you to my post on Scharff at:
