There was no Sunday school

Mother and baby are doing nice
/ ly, but our friend Herman is not
expected to recover from the
shock.
We have no visits to report
| for last Sunday, as everybody
remained at home, so far as we
know. But if any did have nerve
enough to face such inclemenl
atmospheric precipitation, our
admiration is magnanimously
superabundant.
