C: Yes, from the grocery store.

0: And all of your family would eat together? C: Yes, we did.

0: What other businesses was your husband involved in town? C: Well, he was on the Board of the Citizen's Bank, and then the Sun Bank. He was a member
 of the Kiwanas Club, he played pick-up baseball, he played golf, and then he was always interested in having a ranch somewhere. That was sort of his hobby, and we got into buying acreage, and having cows, and then in the later years, after he retired, we had a large acreage out between Micanopy and Windsor on the prairie and we had cows, and also race horses. 0: After you sold your home on what is now South 13th Street, where did you move to then? C We moved over to Highlands, and we bought the house from Ms. Gus Phifer, we called her
 Aunt Nell. The house was originally built by J.C. Atkins who was a lawyer and judge in Gainesville, and it was on the boulevard, on the corner of N.E. 8th Avenue and the
 boulevard. A big two story house.

o Is it still there?

C It is still there. And the people who bought it from us, the Rays, he is connected with the
 University, I do not know in what capacity, they still own it. O And how long did you live there?

C: Well, lets see, we bought it in 1941 or 1942 and lived there until 1972. We lived there about
 30 years.

0: And where did you move to then? C: This house.

0: And you all built?

C: No, we did not build this. We bought it. It was built in 1970 by the Dormans and at that
 time, he was connected with the Athletic Department at the University of Florida. Then he
 lost his job and they moved to Orlando, and we bought it.
