Thanksgiving day passed off very
quietly in old McMinnville II was
very warm indeed for the time of the
year, as people had their doors open
and no fire except to do their cooking.
The next holiday will be Christmas.
Some will meet it with joy. and some
with sorrow. As it only comes once a
yearand is the birthday of our blessed
Savior, let us all meet it with as
cheerful heart as possible.
