The depression hit me just to hard. I couldn’t provide for my family there was no jobs hiring, the factories was only picking one or two people to do shifts. I just couldn’t take it anymore I couldn’t stand to see my family suffer right in front of me and I couldn’t do anything about it son early one morning I told my wife I was going to get a shift at our local factory. I packed my bags and left I was walking down the road when I seen one of my buddies from up the street walking down the road with his bags so I waited and asked him what was he doig and where was he going he said ” Bud I cant do it any more this depression is just beating my butt Im just bout to just get on this rail car and ride the rails and where the train takes me” I said lets go

The worst thing ever is when we lost our house. They kicked us out like dogs on the street like we were nothing. we had to move to central park. Farther built us a little shack that was so small we couldn’t even stand up in it. I really miss our old home this new place is just bad . The smell is just horrible some people haven’t took a bath in months or brush their teeth so i just stick to myself and just try to avoid everyone around me. Oh god i wish things would just go back to how they use to be
