Fortunately, the forecasted snow held off that late afternoon as mittened children, holding tightly to their parents’ hands, followed the winding, lantern- lit path through the woods. Emerging at a clearing at the old rugby field off Bellona Avenue, they joined approximately 125 of their neighbors around a blazing bonfire, sharing holiday high spirits and warming themselves with cocoa and hotdogs. As children young and old speared and roasted marshmallows on sticks over fire pits, the wail of a fire truck siren was heard, heralding the arrival of Santa, who, in spite of his busy schedule, couldn’t resist a good party and took a few minutes to visit with the children and sing carols. This year’s party was such a success thanks to the efforts of many volunteers, among them Beth Purvis, who chaired the event, and her Below, board members Judy Wright, Bliss McCord, and Julie D’Ambrogi prepare hotdogs.

    THE FISCHER FAMILY OF BALTIMORE COUNTY, MARYLAND: A PICTURE OF THE LIFE OF A GERMAN-AMERICAN FAMILY IN THE EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURY In 1990, Rudolph F. Fischer, Sr. finished writing his recollections from child- hood. Although Mr. Fischer intended his narrative solely for his family, the story he tells will likely appeal to many. He focuses on his own experiences yet recounts a virtual chronicle of life in rural Baltimore County in the early twentieth century. Mr. Fischer is now deceased, but his son, Rudolph, Jr., has graciously con- sented to the publication of his father's narrative in the Report. The story is presented largely as Mr. Fischer wrote it. Some explicit references to fami- ly members have been omitted, and several notes and illustrations have been added to make the whole accessible to a wider audience, particularly those who might not be intimately familiar with the geography of Baltimore City and County (Ed.). In June, 1896, my grandfather, Friedrich stated: "having declared an oath taken in J.
