    B4—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, December 19,1981
Last week I spent a most
pleasant day with my daughter,
Judy, who lives in Palmyra. She
had a days vacation and asked me
to go along with her to see some
historic sites in Philadelphia.
We took a train out of Lancaster
and arrived at the 30th Street
Station - one-half hour late, but we
had no schedule to keep so it didn’t
bother us. As it was a weekday, the
only thing that was crowded was
the subway that we took to sth
Street in the historic area of
Philadelphia. We were packed in
like cattle in a truck but the car
traveled at high speed between
stops and we were at our
destination in no time.

. First we toured Old City Hall
which was used by the U.S.
Supreme Court from 1791 to 1800.
Next door was Independence Hall
which was constructed in 1732; the
Constitutional Convention was held
here. The Liberty Bell has now
been moved to its own special
pavilion.
Throughout the day we visited
ten more buildings and saw two
films. One was about the founding
of Philadelphia and the other was
on Benjamin Franklin's life. Both
were shown in huge auditoriums
with only about a dozen people
present.
The homes of John Todd, Dolly
Madison’s first husband, and the
home of Bishop White were quite
interesting as they showed the
difference between the middle
class citizen of the 1700 s and the
upper-class.
While eating our lunch in a
reconstructed 18th century tavern,
we were surprised by a heavy
rainstorm. Nevertheless, we made
our way to colonial Christ Church
which was built between 1727 and
1754 and where William Penn’s
family worshipped.

the spirit they lent to the season.
"Our family Christmas tree, and
the hundreds of beautiful hand

symbolic of our faith in the future
