An illustrated card from Ruth Bell Graham’s friend, Richard Jesse Watson
Among Ruth Bell Graham’s many beloved possessions was her cat, Chester. Richard Jesse Watson even made sure that Chester was included in the illustrations of Ruth’s “One Wintry Night.” It’s came as no surprise then, that he would create a special version of Chester when he later sent Mrs. Graham a card.
This card is part of the private collection of Ruth Bell Graham.
Did you know? Chester isn’t the only special guest in “One Wintry Night.” Each illustration includes a depiction of the cat along with a roly-poly bug. Take a look the next time you open your copy and see if you can find them all!
