The Texas Folklore Society dedicates its forty-seventh volume, Hoein' the Short Rows, to Martha Emmons
Martha Emmons, then a history teacher at Taylor High School, was sent her copy of Legends of Texas (PTFS III, 1924) and was enrolled as a member of the Texas Folklore Society by Ethel Burch, Frank Dobie's secretary, on June 3, 1924. She was invited to add to the Texas legends that Dobie was then collecting and presented her first paper, "Folk-lore of Williamson County," on May 9, 1925, at the Austin meeting. She published her first paper, "Confidences from Old Nacogdoches," in Foller de

Drinkin' Gou'd (PTFS VII) in 1928. The 1932 volume, Tone the Bell Easy (PTFS X), took its title from her article, "Dyin' Easy." Miss Martha was the program chairman for the April 2122, 1933, meeting at Baylor University, for which she was highly commended by Dobie, and subsequently she ascended the political ladder to become president of the Society in 193536. Thirty-five years later in 1970 she was again elected to that office.
For sixty-four years Martha Emmons has served and instructed and entertained the Society. She has guarded its virtue with staunch Baptist morality and has cherished its children with Christian love. The Texas Folklore Society and all of its members abundantly return that love to Miss Martha and thank her for the richness of the many years she has given us.
