Thursday, December 24, 1914. The Christmas Truce.


The unofficial Christmas Truce of 1914 commenced between German and British troops, both in Europe, and interestingly also in Africa.  The Pope had called for one, but that had been rejected by the warring parties.  The troops caused the truce on their own.

John Muir died in Los Angeles at age 76.
