Mary at the Farm and Book of Recipes Compiled during Her Visit

CHAPTER XXIX
2/6

The cornfodder in the barn this morning was damp like it had water on it." And said Mary, "The fragrance of the flowers was particularly noticeable early this morning." Jake, as it happened, was no false prophet.

It did rain before evening.
Later in the day, Mary and Ralph drove to a near-by town, leaving horse and carriage at the hotel until their return in the evening, and boarded a train for Allentown.

On arriving there, they decided to walk up Hamilton Street, and later take a car out to the Fair grounds.

As they sauntered slowly up the main street, Mary noticed a small church built between two large department stores and stopped to read a tablet on the church, which informed the passerby that "this is to commemorate the concealment of the Liberty Bell during the Revolutionary War.

This tablet was erected by the Liberty Bell Chapter of the Daughters of the Revolution." The First Zion's Reformed Church was founded in 1762.
