They were the parents of Mary Lee (Pollock) Hamilton, grandmother of Troy and Todd Hamilton (sons of James W Hamilton III). Pollocks are great grandparents of Troy and Todd and great great grandparents of Jenna M Hamilton. As of This day of 6-13-06, gift was given on Christmas, 1901.

This is a wonderful rare re-covered collector’s edition that was lovingly used and preserved as best as possible. It is in excellent shape especially for one that is around 120 years old!
