NotesThis [story] appeared in The Riverside Magazine for Young People, May 1868. At the time this was written, many of our ancestors still lived in Pomerania. No specific Kreis or villages are mentioned in the story, and customs would vary from one area to another. . . Whitsunday is another name for Pentecost. Pentecost (Pfingsten in German) . . . is the fiftieth and final day of the Easter season of the Christian liturgical calendar. . . . [It is uncertain whether the author is the same as the Pomeranian-born sculpter (1826-1872) who lived in New York.]
