1880 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT OF THE NEW REVEREND AT THE CLINTON CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH

On offer is the original handwritten diary of the Reverend G.E. Ihison. It appears the young Reverend is newly installed in Clinton Congregational Church and there are immediate problems he must deal with. In neat tight script Rev. Ihison reveals immediately of his writing a Mr. Duncan refusing the pastoral position in Benton Harbor Congregational Church. He further details all his contacts, congregants welcoming him, new purchases and moving into his new home with his wife Ellen. Local historians and collectors will delight as the Reverend fully names all his contacts, visitors and occasions attended. There are a great number of entries dealing with his personal economy. The leather binding is in rough shape and the text block is still attached but beginning to separate at the front pages.; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; Michigan, Ann Arbor, Religion, Church, Collection, Charity, genealogy, Personal, Memoir, Handwritten, hand written, autograph, autographs, signed, letters, document, documents, manuscript, manuscripts, writers, writer, author, holograph, personal, Americana, Religion, Pioneer, Florida, FL, Education, ANTIQUITÉ, CONTRAT, VÉLIN, MANUSCRIT, PAPIER ANTIKE, BRIEF, PERGAMENT, DOKUMENT,
