Bernard DeVoto papers, 1933-2002
Aunt Grace says he was an engineer, which is hard to fit in, for his family was on a distinctly higher level, economically, than the family had elsewhere attained. His people were well to do and his father lived to become Governor of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. Anyway, he was too much of a hand with the ladies. He railroaded in Louisiana, Kansas, Mississippi, and finally Mexico. When he went to Mexico, she left him, having had enough of his gayeties. The experience produced the typical Dye crackup — see Rhoda and Grace, not to mention Madeleine.
She had herself a beautiful nervous seizure. Once, when I was repeating the theme with brass and percussion, I asked her if she knew anything about it. She took training in the Cook County Hospital and became a nurse, then went back to Ogden and worked at her trade. Sometimes she parked the kids with my mother, sometimes she set up a joint household with Grace, sometimes she let them run themselves.
But she saw them married. Then she went back to Chicago and took a highly-gadgeted course in beauty-parlor stuff. Going back to Ogden, she worked up from a one-table joint to founding a school in the stuff she had learned. When Edith died, she took the child and has brought him up. The failure of the Ogden State Bank pretty well wiped her out. But she has expanded her school again and is coming back.
This refusal to be downed by circumstance, this ability to meet it head on and subdue it, is the sheer guts that distinguished Samuel. Just three of his children had it. Anyway, in Martha and Grace the Dye stock gets its highest expression. Two years at the U of Utah, taking kindergarten training.
Pretty and fairly clever. Finally married a bank clerk — amiable and worthless. Finally had to teach kindergarten again. Now helping her mother run the beauty-parlor school. The one who taught my childhood that femininity was beautiful. She was pretty even when I was adolescent and had seen other blondes.
Went to Pocatello to learn the millinery business from Aunt Grace. Married a railroad clerk. Died in the influenza epidemic. One child, whom Martha has raised. Martha dreamed of putting him through college the best evidence that she was consciously joining the bourgeoisie but Aunt Grace says he has decided otherwise and is a government photographer, recently at Boulder Dam.
Born in Uinta, lives in Pocatello. Learned how to make hats and worked in an Ogden millinery. Had some kind of tragic love affair, about which neither I nor Rhoda, who was closest to her, have ever been able to find out anything. My mother always refused to tell me. She got together a little money, borrowed a little more from my father and elsewhere, and set up an establishment in Idaho Falls.
She laboriously got it out of debt and was prospering a little when it burned down, uninsured. She had another crash, a pretty bad one. She made another start, in Pocatello this time. Little by little she has gone ahead, enlarging the story here, buying a farm mortgage there, salting away a bond elsewhere. Martha has contributed to most of her sisters and some of her nephews and nieces, but Grace has practically supported them all at one time or another. She has a lot of Idaho farm land, some bonds, some good stocks, too many bum stocks.
She lives the good life, too. She likes traveling about, and goes to California every year where she is unmercifully milked by the grandchildren and most years to Chicago or one of the national parks or the Gulf Coast or whatnot. She likes the theater and is an inveterate sightseer. She likes to motor through the mountain country and go on picnics.
She saw Sam Dye wrenching a farm from the desert — and that is what counts. I could sell a million copies, get the Nobel Prize, or have a statue erected to me in the Hall of Fame, and she would pay no attention. She is shrewd, self-contained, tolerant, in every real sense of the word sophisticated. She gives off a curious and memorable aura of mastery. She has dealt with the conditions of her life and subdued them. Born in Uinta, lives in Pocatello [ pencil: Education, not a hell of a lot. She is said to have been the prettiest of the daughters, though Grace is certainly the handsomest now.
Married a railroad conductor from Nevada. Divorced him some ten years ago. Webb — or maybe Webster. Several years older than I and the one grandson I liked. Used to spend his summers on the farm. Humorous and naturally sophisticated. Was intelligent but a long sickness affected his eyes and he could not go to college. Was a taxi driver for some time. Now runs a small business of his own. Was married but his wife died.
Lives in San Francisco. I forgot to list her romance. She divorced Bill Ward and some years later, she being fifty or thereabout, married a childhood sweetheart, whose passion had endured through the years. She abruptly ceased to be a charge on Grace and Martha. For the sweetheart, beginning life as a U. He ended it pretty soon after exposure to her whines, leaving her a pleasant income.
Beatrice and Rhoda were conspicuously intelligent; but their brothers are dimwits. Nobody else had it. She and Sam were readers and Sam was something of a student, granted his education and his status: About half of the grandchildren have shown an ability to maintain themselves in the world; the rest just subsist, with help from Grace and Martha. Cora, Alice, Beatrice, Martha and I go [? Conspicuous respectability, broken in the direct line only by Edward. Conspicuous intellectual mediocrity, broken in the second generation only by Grace and in the third, if I may be so bold, only by me — and that break unquestionably due to genes that had their origin in Genoa.
But they have, the better half of them, the industry, adaptability and tribe stability of the small bourgeoisie. And they are a cooperative lot. The third generation seems to be staying married better than its parents did. Probably only Beatrice and I have to pay income tax. In the American social hierarchy, only Rhoda as the wife of a banker, Beatrice as the wife of a branch executive, and I as a college professor could sit about [sic] the salt.
This has crowded out a lot of flashes and week-end cables from the Harvard sector. Mormon sobriquet for Utah Territory. Their children were Samuel George Dye, Jr.
