Actually I think we were going to DONDER, from what I read
in the titles to each post, e.g. looking three posts up, post
188412.

Sorry for my error I missed the post. Donner is the german for thunder. I guess the donder is from the dutch roots of upstate New York from where the author is from. Since this is in the public domain there are slight variations among printings.

Donder

Bonder
