Misc. Notes
Bible record: “Today a little daughter was born to me at Bethlehem, about 2 o’clock in the morning. I named her Benigna. On this day she was baptized into the family of God. May the slain Lamb receive and retain her at his open wounded side.”

(Benigna was the name of the wife of Count Zinzendorf and thus we 1earn she must have made a very favorable impression on the mind of Antes. This was his last child. She died at age 12 during an epidemic at the school at Bethlehem.) 1466
