Pearl

Crocheted heirlooms

remind me of the aunt I never knew.

In her pictures, she is about twelfe years old.

It was probalby during the late 1920's

 She had white hair and

wore a white dress.

 
They say she had brain fever.

She stayed in her room,
.
according to my mother's memory.
 
My mom was 6 years old

Pearl, was 16,

She was taken

in a horse drawn ambulance,

To live with the mentally ill.

She died young.


I wonder what she suffered.
