Doll:   Mollie Raushart won this large wax doll in 1883 in a contest sponsored by the Washington Volunteer Fire Company of Delphos, Ohio.  The contest was held to raise funds for a new steam engine.  Kate Eysenbach, a Delphos milliner, made the doll’s dress.  The doll’s hair is natural.  It is one of eighteen antique dolls on display at the Allen County Museum.
