Her duties included milking “Lil” and bringing in sweet potatoes from the potato hill.

Garland turns 91George Garland is the youngest child

of Bertha and Harvey Arthur Stancil. He was born June 6, 1918.

Garland recalled that his pa gave him a Holstein steer raised from a milk cow when he was 12. Garland named him “Boss.” Garland trained him using one line. Garland planted corn with him and hauled wood that his pa and older brother Carl cut. Garland rode him down the dirt road about 1 ½ miles to Mr. James Woodard’s store. Garland tied him out front and bought some penny candy. Eventually Harvey sold “Boss” for $50 to a farmer who needed an animal for farming.
