Description
While
at the
National
Press
Club
in
Washington
,
DC
,
Charles
C
.
Hart
narrated
an
early
experience
as
printer's
devil
for his
cousin
,
C
.
O
.
Rayn
at the
Geneva
Herald
newspaper
.
Upon
hearing
John
Anderson
casually
mention
that "
Mrs
.
Porter
was
engaged
in
some
writing
" and
realizing
the
importance
of her
husband
,
drug
store
owner
and
banker
,
Charles
Hart
"
began
setting
the
type
for a
fulsome
tribute
to the
town's
budding
literary
genius
,
telling
how the
stars
augured
well
for her
early
success.
"
According
to the
story
Hart
told
that
day
,
Gene
reported
the
news
to the
Decatur
Democrat
; the
Porters
were not
well
thought
of in the
community
because
they were
snooty
, not
backslappers
,
never
flattering
anyone
; and that
Gene
expressed
gratitude
to those
who
assisted
her in any
way
.
