Additional Description

Abstract

Mrs. Myrtle Hall is a ninety-year-old resident of Ophir, a community close to Troy, NC. She has lived a hard life and is proud of that fact. She worked at the Fremont Hosiery Mill until knee problems forced her to retire at the age of eighty. She grew up on the family farm which produced all the food her family needed except a little coffee and sugar. Mrs. Hall was heavily involved in her community and in the local Democratic Party.
