I got four presents in my stock- ing viz., an apron from mother, a lead pencil and penholder from Aunt Reid and a card from Aunt Maggie Foster. At was snowing so hard on Christmas that we could not go to meeting The next day we went to Grandpa Muir's and we had a nice time. Grandpa gave me a nice lit- tle book called Anzonetta R.
