Katie came to America from Germany when she was young. I settled on a farm. There she is with old Bess on the farm.
Katie never seems to tire of the farm, even though she has spent over sixty years there. After all, she is the good old type who likes to live quietly. Just to show how old-fashioned she is, she still sticks to her red woolen underwear. She was wearing it when this photo was taken, though it was late June. She was also wearing a red flannel underskirt.
A large sun hat protects Katie’s lily-white complexion so that there are no freckles on it. Her eyes are gray-blue, and her hair is black as a raven’s wing.
