Title
"Mother" - Margaret Clark McCubben
Description
Clipping from Bill Hall's family album. Hands belonging to Margaret Clark McGubben. Caption below photograph reads : These hands were once beautiful strong enough to do a day's work, gentle enough to soothe a child's fears. Now the worn wedding ring looks too large, and feeble fingers clutch a baby's drinking cup as the owner, who surely deserves better, waits quietly for something....anything to happen.
