Good Stories For Great Holidays is a collection of short stories written by Frances Jenkins Olcott.

Each story is carefully chosen to capture the spirit and meaning of the holiday it represents. The stories are written in an engaging and accessible style, making them suitable for readers of all ages.The themes of the stories vary widely, from the importance of family and community to the power of love and forgiveness. Some stories are lighthearted and humorous, while others are more serious and thought-provoking. Overall, Good Stories For Great Holidays is a timeless collection of stories that celebrates the diversity of human experience and the power of storytelling. It is a wonderful resource for families, teachers, and anyone who loves to share stories and connect with others during special occasions.His honesty was strongly illustrated by the way he kept his accounts with his law-partner. When he had taken a fee in the latter’s absence, he put one half of it into his own pocket, and laid the other half carefully away, labeling it ``Billy,' the name by which he familiarly addressed his partner. When asked why he did not make a record of the amount and, for the time being, use the whole, Mr. Lincoln answered: ``Because I promised my mother never to use money belonging to another person.'This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
