Monday, August 10, 1964 The Frances Hubbard Diaries

August 10, 1964
Monday, 70, lovely day, windy, cool.  I did a big wash in am.  Mrs. Seaborg came in pm and I cut 2 jumpers and 1 skirt for her.  She gave me $10.00.  Paul, Norma, and children called, and Norma Ackerly and Timmy here in pm for supper.  I was to go and help Louise with Grandpa at night but she called and said I didn't need to come.  Doug called and asked us to send him $10.00 by wire; it cost over $2.00 to wire.  Too expensive!

Madaline, Doris, Glenny, Clarence, Paul in front

Comment:  Paul Ellis was our first cousin, son of Madaline, Dad's oldest sister who died in her fifties of heart disease.  The $10 Mom earned was worth $96 in today's funds.  Not bad for a couple of hours' work....here is a picture of the Clarence Ellis family on the lawn of the Elmer Hubbard homestead....they are all deceased.
