Marguerite a.k.a. Margaret

Now Marguerite warn't knowed by that name a'tall when she were growing up in Harper. They all called her Margaret, 'cause that were her real name. She were a kinda a dark skin girl, more'n her sisters and brother. And I reckon that were why she got real close to this little Spanish girl what lived on her daddy's place for a year or so when Margaret and the little girl--I forget her name--was about five year old. And Margaret leaned to speak good Spanish. That may be what got her sent to Spain to study at their university. This were around 1920 or so. Well she fell for this fella she met there what were from Argentina and they was married. He were a agriculture guy and this led them to live in the Canary Islands where he helped to grow bananas there. Banana didn't grow good in the high parts of the islands and the soil down below needed more water than nature provided so this Argentine fella figured out how to use spring water to flood the lands what was used for bananas. They lived there until he died in the 50's and Marguerite (what she were called by them folks over yonder) come home to live with her sisters in Harper. And they called her Marguerite, for the most part.  Next: Agnes, Sweet and Learned.
