Notes 
Individual:
Letter June 1982 from Lydia Sibyl Harding Maring to Ona Harding Rohde - Dr. Jim (Bridges) sen
t me my teachers certificate grades that I left with Alice but we had just moved to South Dakota and I got an office job and didn't go back to teaching, but they were real good grades on a First Grade Teacher's Certificate. All I can do with them now is show how smart I used to be.

Told to Mary Singer Shaffer by Ona Marie Harding Rohde on 3 July 1977 - Sybil was going to ge t up in the night to go to the outhouse. It was winter and cold (January 1908) so her stepmother (Lena Gertrude Utley Harding) called out to her to put on her coat. She paused at the back door with the door open. She turned and grew white and fainted. Her stepmother got hysterical and started screaming, thinking that she was dead. She yelled, "Go get your Daddy", over and over and wouldn't touch Sybil. She was so upset that later that next day she went into labor. By later that night she was ready to deliver and Lawrence (her husband) told Ona to go get the neighbor. As Ona was leaving the house she heard the baby cry upstairs. She didn't want to go. She wanted to stay and help with the new baby. She did go on the horse and told the neighbor and returned right away, alone. The neighbor said that she would come but didn't show up until the next morning. Meanwhile Walter heard all the commotion and started running up the road (1/2 mile away) for Mrs. Striker to come. Mrs. Striker came then and was at the house by the time Ona arrived back. They had washed the new baby and wrapped it. The baby was born at seven months and weighed five pounds. It was very frail. It was unheard of to have a child so small. The mother was sick - had pleurisy and was weak from the shock of going into labor early. The delivery went all right. The next day Ona came down with pneumonia in both lungs and Sybil had the D.T.'s , was terrified and out of her mind. Mother was so weak she couldn't nurse. They tried to force cow's milk down the baby. The baby was too weak to suck. It didn't agree with her and she cried constantly. Mother lived six days and died. The night she died, Clayton, (10 years old) who had been sick with pneumonia, had one of his lungs collapse. Irwin, (16 years) was still down, so was Ona, (14 years) and Sybil (13 years). So the four oldest children were too ill to help. The funeral was held downstairs. All the sick kids were upstairs. Ona was so out of it she remembers being told her stepmother had died, but it was hazy. She dreamt she attended the funeral but she didn't. She stayed upstairs from early January 1908 to the third of March. Neighbors brought food but so many people were dying of it and it was so contagious they wouldn't come in.
