A flizht of steep stairs led to the large Mon which
formed the upper story of the old laundry building *here Jack
Dillin and his children made their hen*.
Jaokls daughter glide opened the deer at my knock and
in a sweet votes and pleasant manner invited me to none in and

sake a lot el merle'', said Jack serieusly.
Elsie then excused herself, put on her coat added a little
reuge and powder tio her face and said she was going demi town to
get samething for supper. As she went lightly down the narrew stairs
Jack said: that sure air a fine gal ot mines cad she air mighty

kreAti. new :tint she." Then with a twinkle in his snapping dark
brown eyes which belied his serious countenance he said: betas,
folks says she looks just like me. B That was something that would
require imagination for Elsie was really very pretty with a healthy
flush, really needing us rouges upon her tanned cheeks, while Jack's
facto pallid and wrinkled and etched with pain and worry could hardly
be called good looking theugh it did express character and determi-
nation.
Then Jask proved quite voluble and launched readily in to
the story of his life and his work in the Citrus.
I been a-werkin in the Citrus for **rola eighteen year
now. Nos I aint just 'sackly a Ploridy cracker but I sure um a
Southerner an mighty proud el hit tive. Both me an' my wife wus
borned (bern) up in Alabamys in Pendleton* County, right near
Lusia*. We lived on joinia'farms an' I know that WOUAU from the
time she were a baby a-aussin

that -a -way, she know how her ma done us all, ant she don't crave
to go an live with her but she shore won't let nobody say nothial
agin her ma, neither. An' iron you want ay story that's part ot hit
Life History of Jack Dillin, page 3
so you jus' lissen to this, said Jack.
He rocked excitedly for a few seconds and then after
politely asking if I objected to tiobacco he lighted a cigarette egg
inhaled dceply, then: 8 Hitt, ills' like said, both no an' her
wus horned near Lucia anl akiiewin each ether all our lives we up an
married right early. /In most fift;;r :atm, ams hit must el bin twenty-
eight yearn agent,. Ida, I guess was nigh on to twenty. She come from
mighty fine people too anI she were L;ood lookin and always pleasant
in her ways with folks. She were a Kell* an' tether side el her
fambly wus Riley** they wus ail aigh up in polities too. I never
khowed so much about m4, folks excusin my father's people, I heard
hiA tell that his grand -daddy C040 over here from England but that'll
all knew.
8Hoon after we married her daddy up an' died, but he loft
her forty acres el fine tarsals land. Her ma, an' her brother both
got forty acres each too, that's all the fanbly she had. I never
had but one brother and one mister neither. We wus a.farmin on
some' rented land then so one day Ida said te met 'hy don't we
fix up my place so we can live there and step pa:Tin this here rent.'
Well I had a little money I had saved, the fust an' the last I
ever did save too, an I thought that a good ides so I fixed the
place all up nice like. I ptt a strong three strand wire fence all
round them forty acres, I built a nice little h•use with a wood
floor, no wase dirt floors for us, an' a fire place ant glass winders
too. By the time 1 got hit all fixed up I spent nigh on to nine
hundred dollars on hit. I give the County twenty-five dollars to
help in fixinsup the road, ans they due hit too, they put a good
hard road right by our place, cause when I gived them twenty.five
dollars a lot ol tknxiatax tether folks did the same.

too but we didn't save nonee o' hit for we wus both young an,
liked a geed time along with a little likker now an then. Then
we got to hearin'what good ant easy money they wus a—makin down
in Fierily in the musk suesemmx rows the Lake* then we had a
chanct to rent our place as we up ant °ipso dewn hero. That was
uigh on to t wenty year ago.
While Jaek paused for breath and to light another cigarette
I netioed that the room was very neat and clean.* the floor scrubbed
till it literally gleamed as did the window panes. No shades were
at the wiudews but half curtains of unbleached muslin embroidered
in gay figures were placed at the four larger windows* the smaller
ones were curtained with white scrim. Dishe: werc neatlod eiled
in the old fashisned"kitchen safe. On some elv.lves there were a
few canned aosds* and others held food in small diehes. The safe
was screened to keep the flies out* Whioh was very wise as the front
deers of beth floors were open and screenless. Two double beds* each
neatly made were in opposite ends of the mom and partly screened
by muslin curtains* along side one bed stoce. a cot also neatly made
and with a gay quilt folded across the feat*
