摘要

When Jane MacDonald, a quilter from Lake Wylie, S.C., saw a fragment of a quilt at a North Charlotte flea market, she recognized a valuable antique and bought it. Her subsequent inspection of the 30 squares of the fragment showed signatures of the original quilters and the date March 16, 1863, on a number of the blocks, along with the words "Monument, MA." Eventually her research led her to a genealogist who recognized Monument, MA as Monument Village, now a part of Bourne, Mass., and to the Bourne Historical Society. Mary E. Sicchio, accessions manager at the historical society, told the Cape News in Falmouth, Mass., that it was former accessions manager Thelma R. Loring's reply to an intriguing e-mail from MacDonald that ultimately brought the quilt squares back to Bourne. To Loring's surprise, that e-mail described the signature that proved to be that of her own great-grandmother.

Sicchio)在马萨诸塞州法尔茅斯的开普新闻中说,这是前藏书管理员塞尔玛·R·罗林(Thelma R. Loring)回复麦克唐纳的一封引人入胜的电子邮件,最终将被子广场带回了伯恩。令Loring感到惊讶的是,该电子邮件描述的签名被证明是她自己曾祖母的签名。
