Helma (Heiden) Nickel - Here is a book that the preacher must have given Ma and Pa on the day they were married. It is all in German and that is all that I could make of it. That would have been in 1897 when they were married. It really should be with the Heiden History.

(Note: The inside panel of the book reads: Die Gebetsschule oder Die Herzen in die Hoehe! Das Gebet im allgemeinen und das Vaterunser im besonderen erklaert durch Gedanken, Sinnbilder und Dergleichen. Sonntagsschulen und der Familie dargeboten.

This translates into: “The school of prayers or High up the hearts! The prayer in general and the Lord's prayer especially explained through thoughts, and allegories. Presented to Sunday Schools and to the family.”)
