About five months earlier, on July 4, my parents and the Amos Hofer family moved down from Canada with the truck otherwise used to haul grain and livestock. My dad, my mother, and some of the others rode in the back of the truck with all their household goods. Children were shooting fireworks in the towns they went through. They came down on Highway 37 through Aberdeen, Huron, and Mitchell and turned east when they got to Dimock. Unpaved Highway 37 was very dusty and hot on July 4, 1936. When my parents arrived at Elm Spring, some of the people who were to resettle the colony were already there. When the minister Joe Hofer greeted them, he remarked, “I don’t know whether I should rejoice or cry over you.”показать меньше
