"The women worked harder than we did, now I got to tell the truth. 'Cause I'd get up half past three or four o'clock in the morning, she had to get up the same time to go washin' the youngsters' clothes...She had to be ready to go in the stage when we come in, it could be five o'clock. She had to have all her work done, the lamps trimmed, hens fed...and God knows what else."

- Thomas Moores, from "Crooked Top of a Safety Pin"
