NTHERE clay hills back up out
w of White river, near Bloom
field, Ind, the runty trees, the va
grant roadside springs whisper this
tale of hill violet.
It is a tale of a violet-a free one
who isn't free now. One who
was transplanted in the spring of
life and placed by society's trowel-
the courts-into a hothouse Of lives
where growth is restrained and ar
tificial-the Indiana Woman's prison
because she stole twenty cents.
1t is the tale of Daisy Sullivan,
''just 49," of her desire for clothes
as her hill trees are clothed of her
desire for life outside those hills
and what came of it.

DAISY was born in Greene
- county, where roads are Jagged
and the farms squat on ridges and
hide their faces in foliage for shame
Of their unproductive lot.
The oldest of four children, she
went to the Sharkey township
school "over there a piece" as the
natives say.
"She was good girl in school.
Not so good in her lessons--but
never gave me any trouble, :"

In a clapboard house "back from
the road" where only a trail leads
to it's door, where you carry water
from a spring a mile away, where
you grub for an eXistance on hilly
acreage of untartile origin-Daisy
lived until she Was IL years old.
Death dipped into the hills and
took her mother away.
Over night she became the
mother" of her two sisters and her
brother, while her father, Dave
Sullivan, worked at odd jobs.
She fixed the school lunches of
beans and bread just as her sister
Geneva, IS, does now that she has
gone out of the hills to the big

ORANGES and bananas in the

She cashed the check, bought a
dimes worth of oranges, dimes

She went to the Greene county
courthouse restroom to eat the
fruit She didn't try to run away.
What was there to run away for?
She had been hungry for fruit, she
just signed piece of paper, and
got it.
Now wasn't it nice rocking back
and forth in this restroom chair,
away from life. and dreaming
Twenty minutes passed by.
The dream was broken by harsh
words:
Here, give us that money you
got out of that check. Come along
