Thank you very much. I believe E.Roy has a copy, should you be seeing him.
C. S. Harrison's birthday is on the 24nd of this month. An appropriate menu
of his favorites would include roast beef, asparagus in cream, and fresh
strawberries. No booze; he was a Temperance man, in fact, in 1886 he ran for
Congress from Nebraska on the Prohibition ticket. In this, as in many other things,
he was a man both of his time, and ahead of it.
Cordially,
Anner Whitehead
Richmond VA, USA

not to do and then not do it."
The Rev. C. S. Harrison, York NE, (1832-1919).
