Bio History Note

Mary S. Blocher Gongwer graduated from Manchester College with a BA in 1926. This is a lovely album with a embossed front cover.  The picture on the cover is that of a pirate looking at a chest.  The inscription reads "My Treasures." There is a gold Manchester College seal in the lower right hand corner.

The book documents Mary's college experience, travels and significant events from 1923 through 1926.
