Ruth Harris Diuguid Dougherty FallonBiblio.com

1935-1937 Diary of a Boy Crazy Popular Sayville New Yorker Who Writes from Age 17 to 19 and While Completing High School and Who Would One Day Become a Journalist and Historian

0011109Sayville New York. Very Good with no dust jacket. Hardcover. On offer is a fascinating journal of a young American woman Ruth Harris Diuguid Dougherty Fallon 1917-2007. Born and raised in Sayville New York Diuguid lived most of her life in or near Brooklyn. She married Frederick Howard Dougherty 1918-2004 in 1940 and subsequently Robert Edwards Fallon 1917-2012 in 1987. Ruth and Frederick had two daughters. Ruth was a housewife but on the side she was a published journalist and photographer. She published articles in magazines such as Seventeen but was best known for her historical newspaper articles in the Suffolk County News where she wrote a column called Reflections of the Past about the history of Sayville New York. Ruth also served on the world-wide governing council of the Girl Scouts and was an active member of the Sayville Historical Society. Ruth was 17 when she began this diary in 1935. She was a high school junior at Sayville High School. She crams every single page with detailed entries of the type of personal and social events that are of such crucial importance to a teenager. While the diary is set up to be kept over five years Ruth writes voraciously and the vast majority of the entries are 1935-1937. On some pages the entry for a single day will take up most of the page with entries for other years jotted in the margins or skipped. The diary opens with a Notice: To whoever takes the liberty of reading this diary may it reflect upon their character and be a curse to them if they use the contents against me or those mentioned or to embarrass me or those herein Flyleaf. And with that dire warning she launches in to a breathless description of her life with family and friends. The entries are very long so these are mostly just excerpts: Went to school. I had little homework to finish. I am going with the gang to see Tommy Richards who was stabbed but some of them appeared . Maybe I ought to introduce most of the gang they are the boys and girls of the neighbourhood .she then goes on to list over a dozen friends including Freddie Dougherty whom she would later marry Jan 3 1935. Went to school for an hour in the morning to take English mid-term. I think I barely passed. Bee Vi & I went to Metropolitan Theatre to see Folies Bergere. Had soda in Lofts. Vi & I went to store for mom.Vi Helen Connie Flo Margie and I walked to Bobs sat on steps listening to his orchestra play awhile. Some young boys followed us. Met the boys from our gang on our block. Stood talking a while Apr 3 1935. School. No assembly. Harold & I wandered around a while then went to baseball game. SHS vs Bayshore . We won 5-0. Water pistols were numerous in grandstand May 22 1936. Wednesday work. A day I have long been awaiting arrived - I took my driving test for my senior license! Ma drove me down by 11: 00 to PatchogueGranville Ave. The man was so nice. We carried on quite a conversation. He visited Daddys business in Brooklyn years ago. I didnt do perfectly but I may have passed and I may not have. I do hope I did. I took mom to lunch in the Bonnie Mart. We looked in stores. I had lunch. At home I cleaned my car as I do once in a while. Thenwent to the beach. I later went to library. We felt the urge to study. I get biology and French. Joe and John came down before we had towith work. At church meeting Howie said he had a compliment to tell me nice to hear that the most enjoyable evening he ever spent was at Darcys party. I can only say Ifind it enjoyable to when Howie is concerned August 19 1936. For a social historian this is a terrific look into the lives led by American teenagers during the pre-war years. It would be an excellent source record for a Womens Studies program particularly as it shows a lifestyle that was about to undergo a radical change with WWII and the post war years in America. For a genealogist it offers and outstanding list of names and connections in this community including the school community of Sayville High School. This diary measures 5.25 inches by 4.0 inches and contains 365 pages. The covers are in good condition as is the binding. The pages are in good condition although there is some slight ink blotting in places. The handwriting is tight but generally legible. ; Manuscripts; 24mo 5" - 6" tall; 365 pages; Signed by Author . hardcover

1940 SUPER ORIGINAL PRE-STATE OF ISRAEL DIARY HANDWRITTEN BY A YOUNG IMMIGRANT GIRL DETAILING A FULL AND COMPLETE LIFE IN THE HOLY LAND WHILE THE DARK DESTRUCTIVE BACK DROP OF WWII LOOMS

19360008193HAIFA ISRAEL. Good. 1936. On offer is a notebook and diary In Hebrew authored by Ruth Aschner a daughter of German refugees who came to Israel in mid-1930s. The notebook measures 81' x 62' contains 138 pages and is 90% complete. The pages are slightly yellowed and there are some scribbles on the cover and some pages but otherwise the condition is good and the handwriting is very legible. On the 41st page there is text: "General notebook of Ruth Aschner Carmel Mountain Ben-Zion Neighborhood Aschner House" followed by a record dated 1937 with rules of a ball game rules. Though cursory search did not reveal much information it is clear from the context that the family came to Mandatory Palestine in mid-1930s at the time Ruth was writing her diary she was between 11 -14 years old her father worked at "Migdal" most likely Migdal insurance company - Ruth writes about his trips to Jerusalem on business and in one of the entries writes that someone broke into his car and stole his work documents "acts" "everything collected during the months of work in MIgdal". The first 80 pages are school notes including conjugation tables reading and grammar rules with explanations in German writing practice in Hebrew riddles and jokes lists of books a list of about 140 pictures from Degel cigarette packs Kedem tobacco company a list of students with their birthdays and more. The most interesting part is 46 pages titled "Private Diary belonging to Ruth Aschner from September 1940 to the end of May 1941". The entries vary in length there are usually 3 to 5 entries on each page but there are some that take more than one page. It could be a typical description of everyday life of a school girl but almost every entry includes details reflecting the most tragic and turbulent time in the 20th century history. She writes about Italian bombings of Haifa SS Patria disaster Yugoslavia Coup d'Etat death of Greek Prime Minister Metaxas. The very first entry starts with description of a bombing: "In the afternoon the Rozens came to visit us suddenly there was an attack the siren did not work all the bombs fell into the sea. Then we went to a dressmaker that is making a dress and a school skirt for me. Yehudit Ben-Zion and her family moved to another apartment not close." Sept. 6 1940. Italian bombings of Mandatory Palestine during WW2 were targeting ports and refineries in Palestine primarily Haifa and Tel-Aviv. Haifa was hit many times since June 1940 the bombings continued until June 1941 and so does her diary - along with describing bombings sirens hiding in shelter she writes about weather school trips scout activities music lessons entertainment: "In the afternoon I have a music lesson. In the morning Yehudit came here . For dinner I made salad - tomatoes with salt onion oil and vinegar. At 2.30 p.m. there was an attack again we ran to the bomb shelter the bombs fell near the "refinery" the siren was late as usually. At 7.10 there was an attack I was at Dalia's .The news are not clear. ". Sept. 8 1940; "In the morning at 8.45 the siren sounded - we ran to the shelter I was still in pajamas.I helped mother later I will go to the shoemaker.there have been 5 attacks already and in all of them tanks were burning. Together with those that I mentioned there were 8. At 2.10 the siren sounded again and we ran to the shelter . did not hear anything.then I was in the middle of dishwashing. Then there was another attack at 2.30 we did not hear anything ran to the shelter then after all-clear signal we went up. In the evening I will go to the dressmaker to try clothes on. Two letters came today one from England one from America. At 5 in the evening there was another attack and we ran to the shelter again. It makes you crazy - 4 times during the day.terrible. . Dad Harry and Paula will go to the cinema to see "Verdi" in the evening ." Sept.9 1940. On that day there were no casualties in Haifa but 147 people were killed in Tel-Aviv about which she writes 3 days later: "On 9.9 there was a bombing in Tel-Aviv about 120 people were killed 100 of them Jewish. Jews were destroyed and injured at their homes. Enemy airplanes were flying low after the event the siren sounded." In November another tragic event happens this time in Haifa: "Several days ago there arrived a ship with refugees from Germany and occupied countries she has been in the port for a week already and the English do not allow them to get off . There are some people we know like Epstein and other.". In November three ships with over 3600 Jewish refugees arrived in Haifa but the British refused their entry and the passengers were transferred to another ship SS Patria. Yishuv leaders organized a general strike but it had little effect: "19.11 40: today there is a strike at 12:00 until midnight because they do not want to allow people to get off from the ship ." On November 25 overloaded SS Patria sank because of the explosion: "25.11. Disaster happened.The ship Patria sank. Do not know why it happened. They say that it exploded but it is only rumours. People did not drown but 30 were injured and transported to Hadassah. The others are sitting in the port without clothes so we organized into groups and stations and collected clothes and blankets for the refugees." Unfortunately she was wrong - over two hundred and seventy people drowned 172 were injured. As it became known many years later the explosion was organized by Haganah members as an attempt to prevent the ship from leaving the port but they miscalculated the size of explosion. She also writes about political news from Europe there is a part titled "politics" in some of her entries - usually it is a newspaper clipping accompanied by her comments: "I think that instead of writing what I think is right it would be better to take pieces from newspaper in newspapers they know politics better than I do". The clippings include an article about death of Greek Prime-minister Ioannis Metaxas a headline about certificates issued to Jewish refugees and an article about Belgrade Coup D'Etat of March 27 1941 that replaced pro-Nazi government with young King Peter II opposing to Nazi Germany: "Big revolution in Yugoslavia. Regent Paul left the young King Peter 17.5 years old came to power against Hitler and the old Prime-minister was arrested because he wanted to support Hitler Peter is a "terribly" nice boy he immediately became loved I like him very much. 17 year old boy and the king very very unusual." Apr. 3 1941. She writes about events important for the Jewish community in Palestine like a few lines about Henrietta Szold birthday and about the death of Dov Hoz Labor Zionist leader in a car accident. Her diary is a great evidence of what life for Jewish refugees was like in pre-state Israel. She mentions many movies and performances they saw: "I went with the parents now to "Matate" - "Lights in darkness" and will come back in the evening." "Matate" was a satirical theatre established in 1928. There are several detailed descriptions of her trips with Tzofim Jewish scouts to Tiberias Hurshat Ha'arbaim Kibbutz Yagur and Druz village Isfiya as well as of small family trips to Jerusalem. She writes about her friends and family birthdays and even gives the recipe of a chocolate fish she made for her father. This is an excellent document of life in Mandatory Palestine during the first years of the Second World War. It contains references to many historical events as seen by a young girl and provides valuable information for local historians and genealogists including names of local residents Aschner family and friends students and teachers from Ruth's school and Tzofim movement many with their birthdays. It also contains information about cultural events in the city and school program and activities.; Manuscript; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF; 1940s; 20TH CENTURY; WW2 SECOND WORLD WAR; ITALIAN BOMBINGS OF HAIFA; HAIFA REFINERY BOMBINGS; LIFE OF JEWISH IMMIGRANTS IN PRE-STATE ISRAEL; MANDATORY PALESTINE; ISRAEL; PRE-STATE ISRAEL; JEWISH REFUGEES IN MANDATORY PALESTINE; REFUGEES FROM NAZI GERMANY; HEBREW SCHOOLS IN MANDATORY PALESTINE; "MATATE" SATIRICAL THEATRE; READING PATTERNS OF JEWISH YOUTHS IN PRE-STATE ISRAEL; PATRIA DISASTER; HURSHAT HA'ARBAIM; BEN-ZION NEIGHBORHOOD HAIFA; SCHOOL TRIPS IN MANDATORY PALESTINE; ISFIYA; MOUNT CARMEL; YAGUR; YUGOSLAV COUP D'ETAT KING PETER II OF YUGOSLAVIA; IOANNIS METAXAS; HAR CARMEL WATER TOWER; CARMEL MOUNTAIN; TZOFIM; HEBREW SCOUTS MOVEMENT; JEWISH YOUTH MOVEMENT; MIGDAL COMPANY; DOV HOZ; JEWISH YOUTH IN MANDATORY PALESTINE; IMMIGRATION TO PRE-STATE ISRAEL; FIFTH ALIYAH; FIFTH WAVE OF IMMIGRATION TO ISRAEL; YISHUV; HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS DIARY DIARIES JOURNALS PERSONAL HISTORY SOCIAL HISTORY HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT VÉLIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO D'ANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANOSCRITTO CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL . hardcover

Helen Louise Burrows Stuetzer, Ruth BurrowsBiblio.com

1940s Manuscript Letters on Love Child Rearing and the Polio Epidemic Both Connected to a Prominent New England Artist

0012051Charlottesville Virginia VA. Good with no dust jacket. None. On offer is a small archive of two manuscript letters that interestingly connect an ill-fated marriage child rearing practices in the mid-20th century and polio virus control restrictions in 1945. Both letters are connected to the Stuetzer and Burrows families specifically to the relationship and marriage of Helen Louise Burrows Stuetzer later Sleeper 1922-2008 and Thomas Stefan Neafsey Stuetzer Sr. 1923-1977. Helen was the third child of Ruth Griffin and Harold Melville Burrows and grew up in Charlottesville Virginia attending Lane High School and the University of Virginia. Helen was a well-known artist opening painting studios in Gloucester Rockport and Newburyport Massachusetts. She was a Member of the Portrait Society of America and the International Society of Marine Painters the Dunwoody Fine Arts Association and the Portrait Society of Georgia. Her paintings are being sold to this day. Thomas Sr. Served as a 1st Lieutenant in the US Air Force in World War 2. He later worked as a broadcast executive for the Associated Press in Dallas Texas. Helen and Thomas married in 1944 and had one son in 1945. In 1953 Helen filed for a divorce citing desertion as the reason. Helen went on to marry Jacob Henry Sleeper in 1957. Sleeper worked as a collections officer and had served as a PFC in the US Army during the war. The first letter is written by Helen from her family home in Charlottesville Virginia to Thomas Sr. While he was stationed at Moore Air Base during World War Two. The letter foreshadows Helen and Thomas future. However when read without the benefit of hindsight it simply reads as the letter of a girl madly in love with a boy and asking the boy to love her back. Dated only June 8th Helen writes to Thomas and asks him why he is continuing to hurt her when all she does is show him love. She is confused as to how he feels about her and reminds him that she needs to give a months notice at her job and will move to be with him if he says yes. An excerpt follows: Must you keep hurting me with bitter words You know I can never stop loving you and that I want to be with you more than anythingEach time youve asked me to come see you Ive said I would if youd send me the money. Once you simply ignored it then the next time you went on a spreeTell me as soon as you can if you think Im worth itThe second letter answers any question as to Thomas response to the June 8th letter. It is also sent from Helens family home. This time it is written by Helens mother Ruth and addressed to Helen who is now Mrs. Thomas N. Stuetzer. Helen and Thomas married on August 15 1944 and their son Thomas Neafsy Stuetzer Jr. was born almost exactly nine months later on May 10 1945. Ruth writes to Helen on July 23 1945 when baby Tommy or Tom-Tom is only two months old. For an unknown reason Helen is living with Thomas Sr. In his hometown of Port Washington New York and the baby is with Helens parents. In the nine-page letter Ruth writes at length to her daughter Helen updating her on baby Tommy and the care she is providing. It reads like a high-level overview of popular child-rearing practices of 1945. Ruth also shares details about neighbors and Helens younger brother Harold Jr. who is deployed. As the letter draws to a close Ruth requests money to help with Tommys care and discusses the current health restrictions related to the polio epidemic and its impact on Tommy. Some excerpts follow: .Tommy is really the most appealing young man Ive ever seen. I give him the cod liver oil and orange juice and outside of a yell and a funny face he always makes he keeps it down and is glad to get to the orange juice. Ive called Dr. Birdsong only once cause he was having cold feet and he asked me about pajamas. I reminded him the little one was only two months oldhe said put socks on him. He is asleep now as contented as the cows that give Carnation Milk for himI know you want to see and be with him and you also want to be with Tommy Sr. . Ive been hoping you both could see your way clear to come down and be with us all some too but it may not be that you canOne of the neighbors and I have our eye on a colored girl we can use between us at 7 dollars each a week. So if you and Tommy can send us 10 dollars per week that will cover all expenses practically I want to getLittle Tommy Jr. A Kiddie Korp which will be 37 dollars but he is bound to have that.since you wrote theres a ban on traveling also the radio is broadcasting its polio epidemic: keep babies away from people crowds etc. Swat all flies. Do not go in parks for swimming. Tommy Jr. Is safe. I watch him every minute. No one comes near him. Taken together these two letters provide insight into wartime romantic entanglements and the lengths families go to to provide the best lives for their children both their adult children and infants. The second letter provides surprising detail as to the daily life of an infant in the 1940s under the shadow of the polio epidemic. These letters would make an impactful addition to any collection that relates to WW2 pediatrics family studies or sociology. Both letters are in good condition with creases from where they have been folded but no obvious rips or tears. All writing is legible. Both include addressed envelopes but only one has its stamp. Overall Good. ; Letters; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 10 pages; Signed by Author . unknown

1942 -1949 ORIGINAL GROUP OF 12 DIARY LIKE LETTERS HANDWRITTEN BY A NOTED MISSIONARY BRINGING CHRISTIAN AID AND EDUCATION IN PARTS OF NIGERIA AND THE SUDAN WHERE NO WHITE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SEEN BEFORE

19420002274SUDAN NIGERIA BRITISH WEST AFRICA. Very Good. 1942. On offer is a super group of 12 fascinating original manuscript and typed letters written by American missionary Ruth Warfield born circa 1910 of the Sudan Interior Mission from northern Nigeria British West Africa circa 1942 - 1949. The letters are full of insightful and significant entries detailing her life as a missionary in remote parts of Nigeria in the 1940s with the looming backdrop of World War II. Wonderfully detailed we learn that she travels by bicycle takes her Hausa native language exams mentions the conditions of fellow missionaries visits remote villages a large baptismal of 300 a tragedy at a village where fire had destroyed the entire area a plan of new church building and use of made bricks. A letter of her recent visits with Miss Helen Watkins who fell ill and needed to get to a remote clinic. She mentions the death of Dr. Stirrett's in detail at his home in Nigeria and subsequent funeral. There are some very detailed descriptions of long journeys into remote areas by bicycle or on foot these are her long trips visiting SIM schools with a Miss Watkins a fellow missionary. A nice map is included on hand laid paper of Nigeria showing SIM mission stations. Here are some snippets: Sudan Interior Mission Jos Nigeria British West Africa 1948 "On our arrival at Zampur Helen became very ill with a high temperature and a bad chest cold The next day she developed Pleurisy and for several days couldn't even turn over in bed with out help. There we were miles out in the bush and there was no possible way to move her and get her to a doctor." "Just about two weeks ago now Miss Watkins and I drove up to Kono 372 miles from here .She had to go to help give some of our missionaries their second Hasa exam examination and since she has an infection in her foot and had orders from her doctor to stay off her feet I did the driving. Roni is 60 miles from Kano. On that road besides the washboards. There are holes and if we went to fast to avoid the washboards we hit these holes and if we went to slow we bounded all over the place. The boys in the Roni School are all waifs that have been sent from." British West Africa 1949 "These past few weeks have been busy ones for me. I went out on trek the last of Oct. and was gone for two weeks. I spent five days in one village where no white person had ever slept before. I stayed in the chiefs compound in a grass hut- grass mats formed the walls and than there was a grass roof. I certainly was a curiosity as was everything I had and did. I woman asked me if I had toes on my feet like they did SO I proceeded to show her!" "When we reached the town we found that disaster struck. The people had been dismayed a week or so earlier because of several sudden deaths in the town and now just the night before I reached there fire had swept through and nearly half the town. Most of the people had lost everything. The roofs were made of grass and so burned readily and many had dug out the back walls of the houses to save their own lives and what possessions they could. We are out traveling again as usual and have been away from Jos now for over three weeks. This has been a hard trip and it seems everything has gone wrong. First we had trouble with the car. Then I went to a school where I had to walk just over four miles not far but it was up one steep hill and down another. In getting there I was soaked through with dew and coming back drenched with rain. Another school I had to get to be 12 miles from where we were staying. Another school I was trying to get to be about 8 miles to get there and was carried on the back of an African across five streams." BACKGROUND NOTES: One online source provides: Lifelong Missionaries: Women Return to Africa and 'a Place in the Heart' November 25 1987 MICHAEL GRANBERRY Times Staff Writer: Helen Watkins 83 and Ruth Warfield 77 have crisscrossed Africa on bicycle and foot by car and train. They have eluded pagan spirit warriors and towed 17-foot mobile homes over choppy African roads. They have heard the too-near roar of lions. They've brought the Gospel of Jesus into Muslim-controlled areas and faced what they termed "serious hostility." They persuaded the men of the Kagoro tribe to stop beating their wives only to be told by one man "We don't know if we like this Christianity. How can we free ourselves . . . of our frustrations" Watkins and Warfield are lifelong missionaries retired and out of Africa since 1979. They live in Carlsbad in a mountainside development owned by Sudan Interior Mission the interdenominational delegation both have served for more than three decades. Recently they decided to go back to Africa--for a three-month visit. "Imagine that 'at their age' " Warfield said. "I'm sure people will think that; some may even say it. But we feel great. We can't wait to get on that plane."

On offer is a fascinating manuscript relic of many years study of Indian literature history philosophy and all matters spiritual and New Age thought being a journal dated 1982 handwritten by Indologist Ruth Reyna Ph.d. dedicated to her Grandson. Dr. Reyna used the book as a collection of specific quotes or writings she had written over a four decade period. This passage gives the gist of it: 'My special diary tintinnabulations of the mind refers to soft ringing in the ear which heralds my innermost thoughts'. There are approximately 90 pages of writings and notes including a retrospective diary section. The earliest quotes appear from 1957 through the 1980s with a few later to 1993 in a weaker hand. Many of the later entries deal with her declining health with some very intimate entries dealing with her mortality. Reyna was noted for having deciphered some old Sanskrit documents that detailed ancient flying machines how to build them etc. She is mentioned in David Hatcher-Childress' books.
