Gloria and Ruth's Bedroom: Jimmy's two sisters shared this bedroom. For birthdays and other special occasions, they had sleepover company. After falling asleep, guests would awaken and sometimes go into hysterics when the train came by the front of the home about 2 o'clock every morning. It sounded terrible, as though the train was coming right through the house. The Carters were accustomed to the train passing and usually slept right through all the noise. Sometimes the girls would slip out the front window and sit on the front door step and talk. |
