    The only time in history an airship has been washed in Niagara Falls . .

    Yes, Dennis! Thank you! And I was thinking of P. C. as I was typing my reply . .

    I do too! This is just wonderful . .

    Yes! The 16th. I thought so. A bit like Peppermint Patty’s in the front. Lovely!

    True. But both Schulz and Beiman have had a lot in common. They both have known a lot about the business—technique but also, most importantly, meaning. (Ha! I’m now thinking that, very rarely, Linus combed his hair. I wonder about Kate. I’ll go back and look.)

    I can hardly believe Mr. McCay found a way to even draw these soot-filled panels. What a tour de force!

    Kate’s hair sure beats Linus’s.

    Also, not all is lost. Almost the same thing, but not quite. I wonder if one is blue and the other red!

    A. McKay, in the “History of Kilmarnock” (1880), wrote, “This bell was gifted by the Earl of Kilmarnock to the town of Kilmarnock for their Council~house.”

    And even earlier, we have, “If they object, that tithes, being gifted to Levi, in official inheritance, can stand no longer than Levi. . . .” This is from 1619. It is in J. Sempill’s “Sacrilege Sacredly Handled,” on p. 31.

    Or this, from 1801: “Parents were prohibited from selling, gifting, or pledging their children.” That’s in A. Ranken’s “History of France,” vol. I, on p. 301.

    We’ve been “gifting” things for almost as long as we have people “gifted” in mathematics, gifted in medicine, or gifted in operating heavy equipment—we can be gifted, in rthat sense, in anything. But “gifting” a present is old and long established, it certainly seems.
