Wes and Florence's Sinful Lives - [Jan 9, 1943]

In our longest ever letter (but not episode!), we have a bombshell of a revelation about Mattie's son Wes, and his wife Florence. Mattie is way in her feelings, and leaning on her faith to get through. Ken is NOT leaning on Edgar Guest's poems, so he's got plenty of energy left to be Mattie's sounding board about a homesick Bud, and the answer to who is the new president of the Ladies Aid. Content Advisory: this episode contains discussion of domestic violence. –––– Characters This Week: Wes (eldest son) Florence (daughter-in-law) Mrs. Colona (Wes & Florence's neighbor) Giertsen's (best friends) Mrs. Nelson (volunteer friend) Bud (stepson) Mrs. Hance (friend) –––– Website: moth.family Contact us: [email protected] Get notified about new episodes –––– Mattie On The Homefront is produced by Hans Buetow.
