Interview Excerpt

Eunice:

"Years ago as far as what I liked - you asked me that question a few minutes ago - I did enjoy the North Pawlet Sewing Circle and the Home Dem. that I went to, and I was on the school board for twelve years and I enjoyed that. It was a lot of problems but still I enjoyed it. Rachel Waite would have more right down concrete information, probably, than I about the North Pawlet Sewing Circle. She could tell ya the lady that started it - I'm not sure what her name was - and then other ones that carried it on and carried it on until it dwindled down to about three that belonged to it. After I went to work as a cook and was working so much then I didn't go to these things, but I always furnished every time they put on anything. I told them not to forget me that way, I will do that. We sewed, crocheted or made quilts, or embroidery work or whatever. They used to meet around in homes years ago. We worked hard and had a good time. Oh yes, that's the purpose of making 'em was to sell them. They always gave some of what they made to the church, and they always gave some to different organizations, even at times they gave to the Catholic organization. It was un-denominational."
