Aunt Bertha made Uncle Horace drive her all the way down here from Rome when she got a letter from Aunt Fannie. She was telling Daddy about it and I heard this much before they noticed that Blance and Ethel and I were listening and sent us out to play.
"Dollie and Ma died and that was awful. Rube died and that was awful, too. Then Claudie died and that was awful. Now Pa has married and that is the worst thing that ever happened."
note: Aunt Bertha actually said these words but it was 1978 when she said them, relating family history.
