Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: VERY GOOD. 89, 32pp. Two autograph manuscripts in fine longhand by Abraham Leisy. The first is a transcription of the Gerrit Roosen's Mennonite Catechism; the second text is a 32-page collection of pious tales. The books were bound together with a signature inlaid from a letter by Abraham Leisy and pasted t…o the title page of the first volume. Bound in black finished cloth with 'Biblische Fragen' stamped to the front cover. The FFEP bears a note by Leisy's sister, Babette, reading 'Babette Leisy. / Cleveland. / Dieses Buch brachte meinen topfchen Diana [?] im Jahr 1895. von Deutschland, Friedelsheim [?] das hat alles [?] Bruders Abraham Leisy geschrieben.' 'The Abraham and Katarina Leisy family emi grated to America in 1855 from Friedelsheim, Germany. They settled on a farm outside of Donnellson, Iowa. The Leisys were members of the West Zion Mennonite Church of Donnellson.' (Mennonite Life, April 1976). Abraham's sons notably founded the Leisy Brothers' 'Union Brewery' in 1862 in Keokuk, Iowa. When the state of Iowa banned manufacture of alcoholic beverages in 1884, the brewery was moved to Peoria, Illinois and renamed 'Leisy Brewing Company,' a major regional beer producer and known as the last Mennonite-operated brewery in the U.S.
