This thesis, submitted to Xavier University in partial fulfillment of requirements for a Bachelor of Arts degree in Home Economics in 1931, examines the household budget as a system for managing family income during a period of national economic crisis.

The thesis defines the budget as one stage within a larger financial organization process encompassing planning, record-keeping, and periodic review, and argues that no fixed formula for …

San Juan Island Febuary [February] 28th 1868

My Dear Brother Since I last wrote you, I have received two letters from you. One, under date of Oct. 8th, and one of Dec 17th, the one of Oct. 8th enclosing one from Mother under date of Sept 14th. I commenced an answer to your letter of Oct. soon after receiving it, but having to go to Portland, at that time, I thought that I would finish it on the voyage down, and mail it there, the weather was rough that I was unable …

Gold Rush Life

Victoria V I [Vancouver Island] Febuary [February] 4th 1865

Dear Brother Your welcome letter under date of Oct. [October] 6th last came to hand only last week, where it has been all this time, is a mystery [that I] which I wish, that I could solve. I wrote you a long letter in August which you should have received at or about the time your letter is dated, and I have been anxiously looking for an answer to it for some time past, and began to think that you surely could not have rec. [received] it, but as …

Letter From Augustin Hibbard To [William Hibbard] 1864 May 30, Augustin Hibbard

Gold Rush Life

Victoria May 30th 1864 Dear Brother When I wrote you in January I did not think that I should allow so long a time to lapse before writing you again. But the prospect of my selling out here, and going home, which I fully advised you of at that time, has resulted in nothing but disapointment [disappointment], and has kept me in such a state of uncertainty and doubt that I had been expecting from week to week would be put an end to that I have delayed writing you much longer than I ought, or will again. The …

Gold Rush Life

Please return this soon William

San Juan Island Sep 25th/63 [1863]

Dear Brother

Yours of July 30th came to hand last week and received a warm welcome, it is such a pleasure and relief to me to hear from home. When I say this you perhaps may wonder why it is that I am so delinquent in writing but the fact is my dear brother that I have little to write about except myself (and that so very unsatisfactory) that I often commence a letter and give it up thoroughly overcome with the blackest kind of blues. The isolated life …

Letter From Augustin Hibbard To Brother [William Hibbard], 1863 June 2, Augustin Hibbard

Gold Rush Life

Victoria June 2d 1863 Dear Brother Yours of Mch” [March] 26th was received last week, and afforded me much pleasure, and gratification as it had been sometime since I had received any news from any one at home, and I was becoming fearfull [fearful], that when I did hear from you, that I should get bad news, but thank God, my dear brother, such was not the case, and I have been once more rejoyced [rejoiced] to know that you were all enjoying good health, and were prospered spiritually and temporally. I find that I am not able to …

Letter From Augustin Hibbard To [William Hibbard] 1863 March 14, Augustin Hibbard

Gold Rush Life

San Juan Island March 14th 1863

My Dear Brother When I wrote you last under date of Dec [December] 21st I mentioned (for the hundredth time probably) that I was going to improve, and write you oftner, than I had been in the habit of doing, but alas for human resolutions, and most especially my own, for they are barren of fruits, and productive of only regrets, at their failure. I have however been exceedingly occupied since I last wrote, the winter being unusually fine and dry, there has been a demand for lime, that we were unprepared …

Victoria V I [Vancouver Island], Nov [November] 10th 1862

My Dear Brother I arrived here this morning from San Juan Island, and found your welcome letter awaiting me at the Post Office. I regret that I did not get it sooner, but I have not been in Victoria for about six weeks, and although I have requested persons to enquire for the letters for me, they have reported none. I am confident however, from the date of yours Aug [August] 28th, that it must have been here the last time I sent. I am sure that I …

Dear Brother

Yours of Feby [February] 14th came to hand last mail, but the Steamer remained here so short a time that I had not time to answer it then.

Victoria VI [Vancouver Island] –[ Dec 25th/61

Dear Brother

This is Christmas day and as I take my pen to write you a few lines. Wishing you a merrie time and a happy New Year, my mind travels back to years, and I am again taking my Christmas dinner at St. Andrews surrounded by the loved ones at home, it is a pleasing illusion, and I suffer myself to enjoy it for awhile, but as I dismiss it, God knows, how much I wish that it was a reality. I wrote you a few hurried lines by the …

Gold Rush Life

Fort Townsend, Washington Territory

Feby [February] 7th 1859

Dear Brothers,

It is now more than two years since I have received a letter from you, or have written to you. This is not right, we should correspond once a year at the least, but I suppose that you like myself, have been your whole time, so occupied with business, that although you have often thought of me, and, determined to write to me when you would have leisure, yet the time has insensibly passed away, and the letters are still unwritten. I do not seek to excuse myself but …
