THE PIONEER CURRICULUM--Koreshan Unity: Tinsmith Department, Theodore M. Yaley, Director.

FOLKS WE KNEW WHILE IN THE K.U. by Marie McCready; Theodore Yaley: Husband and wife. He was a tinsmith and had a high, rather squeaky voice, but was nice to everybody, as was Ellen. She had the corner room next to Lovelle and me when I had the anemia and always asked if there was anything I needed when she would be going downstairs. Lovelle tells of a little episode after Ellen had moved to one of the small cottages. Lovelle stopped by one day and was hospitably served a cup of coffee into which Ellen had put a spoonful of salt instead of sugar. Lovelle drank it without a word. Some days later when they happened to meet Ellen asked about it, saying she had recently changed the contents of some of her containers and had wondered about it. Lovelle stoutly maintained that it was sugar but never was sure whether Ellen believed her or not. To some, Ellen's loud, incessant talking was annoying and Allen being one of them, he transposed the letters of her name and called her "Yellin Aley."
