Letter of Ernestine Shannon Uhl (nee Haskell)
Ernestine Adams Uhl
2099 Pacific Avenue
San FranciscoDear Mr. Lillard;
It was certainly a thrilling thought to me to read your query in your letter of September the twenty first, because of your mention of my mother. She seems to walk with me daily in my thoughts and seems to me to be beautiful, intellectual, understanding, tolerant and just.
I debated a long time with myself as to whether I should place upon her tombstone the follow inscription: "Beautiful mentally, morally, intellectually and physically." The fear as to whether she would approve or not, caused me to desist.
She had seven children and each one felt she was dearer than the other, and closer to her than the other.
This is typical of her way: when very young, I told her a "story"; and she blushed deeply and turned away her head, but said nothing. And I was so overcome with grief and shame that I had caused her to have such silent shame for me that never in my did I ever again misrepresent the smallest act of mine; but instead whenever I did anything wrong rant to her arms for a solution.
Excuse my telling you all this, but your letter really touched my heart where my mother is enshrined. as in the hearts of all her children.
The Aurora part of my parents life was so long before my memory of life that it has taken its place in my ken as something as unknown as would be some unknown forebear.. You see I was the "baby of the family" and never knew anything about those days.
When the railroad was moved to Sacramento, I was brought as practically a baby from Sacramento where I was born.
The officers of the Southern Pacific all bought homes on California Street from Nob Hill down. Stanford, Towne, Huntington, Crocker, Hopkins and others and my father likewise built further down the Cal Street on the corner of California and Webster and it was in this house that my whole life was spent so Aurora was completely unknown to me.
I was married in this home to John C. Adams, a hawker of Oakland in fact his brother Edson Adams still has his bank there, the "Farmers and Merchants."
After my husband's death, I married Adolph Uhl, Supervisor of city and county of San Francisco for eight years and had my silver wedding of twenty five years recently.
The names of my mother's children were, first the posthumus child of Sterling Benjamin Franklin Clark, Mrs. Mighels. The little girl Eugenia Dudley, who died at eighteen months, was my own father's Dudley Haines Haskell's first born. Then came the boy Dudley Haines Haskell (junior), followed Harry Hepburn Haskell, then John Mitchell Haskell (nicknamed Birdie), followed the girl Manie Raymond Haskell, and myself, Ernestine Shannon Haskell.
The only ones that knew anything about Nevada were Mrs. Mighels (Ella Stanley Clark) and possibly my eldest brother Dudley who thought he was born in Sacramento too.
But my mother wrote in her diary in 1868 they were all born before that excepting myself. My father was Town Site Agent for the Southern Pacific.
I think my father would now be somewhere about 118 years old. Just imagine, his mother was bour about 1793 imagine my own grandmother! And I "jitterbugging" constantly with my husband who likes to dance every night and practically does, tho neither of us touch alcohol of any kind ( I never tasted it in my life).
But we are both slender and our children all grown with children of their own. I have a son-in-law also (Colonel Robert Barrett Hutchins, West Point Graduate). My second daughter married one of the Weickers of New York City (who gave the million dollar foundation to N. Y. (Squibbs Chemicals)).
Both of my sons married (John Adams Jr. and Edson Adams, tho I lost the elder in death; while the younger is plying) One daughter still single.
We have lived at the above address for about twenty three years now, my husband is about seventy four and los the Mayoralty by about 3,500 votes. He has great grandchildren by his first wife.
If you will allow me to interpolate a joke in this serious document, will say that I now tell my husband that while he has thick pretty gray hair, his own lovely teeth and "jitterbugs" with me constantly, yet his chances with the girls are completely obliterated since he has become not only a grandfather, but a great grandfather twice over!
Excuse me for telling you about my own family but since we are sort of on family matters, I couldn't resist doing so. And if you only knew how thrilled I was to receive your letter about the one so enshrined in my heart as my mother. It really seemed like some mysterious breath from heaven, and has caused me such mental and spiritual happiness.
Could I ever be able to get the journal you mentioned? And I remain hoping I have answered the questions and grateful for the memories you have brought back to me, and with every wish for you and your own loved ones.
