Thankful for Christian mother. Nothing like a good mother. God call them angels in heaven but we call them mothers down here.
**********
Stanford's mother, Frances Augusta Clowe Closson, was born February 7, 1860, so that made her 64 on this day in 1924. She was 40, therefore, when she had Stanford and Hanford, and her husband was seven years old than she, being born in 1853. The twins, however, seemed to have suffered no ill effects from having been born to an older mother and father.
