The Night Before Christmas
Above is the title page to a book found at Grandma's house. It has one of my favorite poems "Visit of St. Nicholas". Also found in this thin board book is "The Christmas Grab-Bag", "Annie's and Willie's Prayer", "A Little Boy's Letter to Santa Claus", "Tot and the Turkey Gobbler", "Mildred and the Turkey", "Old Santa Claus" and "Santa Claus's Letter".
Timeframe: "Junior from Santa. Dec. 25 - 1926" so Christmas, 1926. Junior would have been just shy of seven.
How It Fits: Merrill "Junior" Rudes is the son of Merrill Rudes & Della Meyer. Junior is the father of Terry, Merrill, De Ila & Diane.
