A handwritten note on the reverse of a newspaper clipping from the Ohio Daily Record entitled, "'Old Christmas' Today Is Serious 2nd Holiday For Amish Residents Of Area", by Clif Bushnell and dated January 6, 1961. The note speculates about whether the Amish have always used this date or whether it was influenced by changes in the calendar.
