1930 in the Words of Mossie Boyle

When our daughter Margaret was born the whole community rejoiced with us. I guess they thought we were never going to get a girl and we thought the same but she came—a little red headed girl. All our children were born at home. If she had been born in hospital we would have thought they got the babies mixed as we couldn’t recall any red head in our family, but we heard later that there were some red heads in the Boyle connection.

All 3 boys were still going to school in Colgate when Margaret started school, so they took good care of her when they went with horse and cutter in winter. We wrapped her in a fur cape that used to belong to my mother and the boys said she invariably went sound asleep going to school.
