TIDBITS
I capitalized the surnames for emphasis
This is a list my mom found when cleaning out an old trunk. It came out of a cookbook, that was handwritten, dated September 23, 1910.
The front page of the cookbook says:
--------------------"Dedicated to our dear friend Amilda this 23rd day of Sept.1910 by her dear friend Shone Madeline FUSSY"
--------------------
This list fell out of the cookbook: (1907)

**My note: This is the end of the list. We believe that the Amilda referred
to at the beginning was Mamie Ameldia DURKIN. She would have been 19 years
old when she wrote this.
