mail pouch
The Mail Pouch Building in Historic Jonesborough, Tennessee
Originally built in 1888 as a saloon, the building now houses The MAIL POUCH, s unique gift and craft shop. It is a reminder of the days when sign painters toured the country, covering barns and buildings with their handiwork.
The Mail Pouch mural is in excellent condition. It was painted in 1902 and re-discovered in the 1960s when an adjacent building was torn down. The
saloon closed in 1904 when the town voted to prohibit the sale of alcohol.

Anna Pavlova was the most celebrated ballerina of her time. Born in 1881 in St Petersburg, Russia she studied at the Imperial School of Ballet at the Mariinsky Theatre from 1891, joined the Imperial Ballet in 1899 and by 1906 was a prima ballerina. After leaving the Imperial Ballet, Anna formed her own ballet company and went on tour, introducing her classical style of ballet to the world. She visited several countries travelling over 500,000 miles by boat and train and giving over 4,000 performance. She died of pneumonia while on tour in the Netherlands just before her 50th birthday.

Dear Bella,
Mom had her eye surgery last month. Brother-in-law died 21st and buried last Sunday. Fire at High School last Thurs. Damage confined to one area and school open tomorrow. Saw it right after it started. Go by there on way home from work. 7 inches snow last week-end. Love, Faith.
this deserves a long letter, or phone call, in return!
