Read about this series of posts, regarding items in a box originally owned by Belle (Lamunion) Fellows Tinker here. The cast of characters is located here. And, there is an accounting of people about whom I have little information here.

The numbering of these posts had been modified to signify that I am posting items from my archival book three, a three precedes the item number.

Merry
Christmas

“BEHOLD, THE STAR …WENT BEFORE THEM
UNTIL IT CAME AND STOOD OVER WHERE
THE CHILD WAS.”

MATT 2:9

This Christmas message rings out again,
“Peace on earth, Good will to all men.”

To aunt Bell & Chas
From Wm H. Puff & Mr & Mrs Etta Shick

Etta M. Murray, married Harry T. Shick sometime after her first husband, Fred Puff died in 1910.

William Puff must have wanted his mother and her husband’s greeting added to his. An interesting way to write the names!
