Reaching onto the collection of book-ends of the family history.

Having wrapped up all grandfather's history books,pre-1900....
Currently in the middle of great-grand-dad's copy of
McGuffey's Fifth Eclectic Reader (2nd Ed) 1857

Most pleased with the Welch example "The Well of St. Keyne" a copy
of which and multi-format tune is in the Digital Tradition.

Sincerely,
Gargoyle

The marginal notes and morality are as valid today as then. And humor is timeless.
