However, those that I have researched have stayed put like Mrs. McMullin.

The clarinetist photo is still going strong more than a century after it was taken, so she has had the last laugh on photo quality. My favorite quote is from the picnic article: "One could hardly hear himself think for the noise." I found that incredibly amusing as a city dweller. Must have been pretty quiet out there!

What struck me about that newspaper article was the wording - so indicative of the writing of the times. My great grandfather in his journal of his trip to Yosemite in 1874 used much the same language - in one place in particular writing "Then off we went as jolly a crowd as could be." That type of writing seems so 'old fashioned' now, but it had charm we don't see anymore in today's writing. A shame, I think. :)La Nightingailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769079547153094005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447020772809150478.post-1425690293932603052018-02-11T10:39:08.431-05:002018-02-11T10:39:08.431-05:00The photography business wasn't for sissies in...The photography business wasn't for sissies in those days. Mrs. McMullin seems to<br />have been inventive and adaptable, offering all those items for sale and<br />positioning her business as a kind of salon for women. Maybe she saw the writing<br />on the wall with the advent of the affordable camera for home use.

Perhaps it was a relief to get away when she moved away with her husband. It must have taken a toll on her as she didn't set up in business again, but she probably missed it all the same.Jofeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10290597697140624780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447020772809150478.post-84597123058249879802018-02-10T17:40:40.130-05:002018-02-10T17:40:40.130-05:00Newspapers are a wealth of information.
