Reg: Christkindl Markt.

Ich hoffe das in diesem Jahr, im wahren Glauben und im Geiste der Weihnachtszeit,
Diebe das Jesukindlein in Ruhe in seiner Krippe ohne der eisernen Bauchbinde schlafen lassen.
Sollte sich jemand wundern,warum diese Ausage — dann rate ich meinen Bericht zu lesen ,wie dieser vor etwa fuenf Jahren in der “Eintracht ” zu lesen war.
