Luther and Nora: Snuff and False Teeth

Both Luther and Nora dipped snuff!!! Yaaarrrggghhhh! Put me off snuff forever. They put a pinch of snuff between gums and lips and produced a gaging brown liquid that they spit into glass jars. There was always a glass jar with the brown stuff nearby and there were trickles of brown in the wrinkles around their mouths. It was truly disgusting. Linda Thomas and I still laugh about how we reacted to this filthy habit.

They also both had false teeth. I have no idea how that came about other than horrible dental care during their younger days. Their teeth were kept in small glass jars with clear liquid and Linda and I, again, were a little grossed out and a little fascinated by the teeth.
