Tabletalk

(1980 memoirs)
Supper [with Frankie] was always laid out in the dining room properly.  And how well I remember our discussions!  We talked about all our family members, the family tree, New England, Floridy, Ripon, the College years ago, the professors, which ones were ministers of the Gospel and often held the services in the Congregational Church, which was part of Ripon College; we talked about Russia, a lot about religion and beliefs, customs, manners, the neighbors, the "creatures," and of course ourselves.
