A New York census eumncrator
wrote opposite a large part of his
names. under the trend of occupation.
"crook." in the South many enumer-
ators gave the occupation of well‘to-
do persons as "gentlemen." A Penu-
aylvanla Dutch report designated sev-
eral persons as "villians." An invalid
in llllnols was given the occupation
"laid up." and a paralytic figure in the
same column as "has fits." A Kon-
tucky woman. whose husband was en-
tered as an "idler." gave her occupa
tion as “washing and wishing." Some
of the other oddities of occupation are
given: “Boarding." “visiting." ”not at
work" and “lnuslcally inclined."
