Kathy: We’re talking with Martha Harris about her husband and her marriage.

Martha, may I ask, how did you meet your husband?

Martha: Oh, that’s a funny story.

I was working in a grocery store.

Let’s see... This was in 1943.

At the time, I was living in New York City.

Well, one day, a young man walked into the store.

He took an orange from the table...

... and all the other oranges rolled onto the floor.

There were oranges everywhere!

Kathy: (chuckles)

Martha: Well, everyone in the store was picking up oranges.

And we were all laughing.

Kathy: Yes.

Martha: Well, after we put the all oranges back, he and I began to talk.

Kathy: Unh huh.

Martha: And the next week, we went to a movie together.

That was... June... June 1943.

We got engaged two months later, in August.

Kathy: When did you get married?

Martha: We got married about a year later.

In March, 1944.

Kathy: Nineteen forty-four?

Martha: Yes. That was a long time ago.

Kathy: Martha, it’s been a pleasure talking with you.

Martha: The pleasure’s all mine, Kathy.

Thank you for inviting me.

Kathy: Now let’s take a short break.
