I got an old anvil and forge, hammer and tongs and started building layoffs and tractors from old cars. I would trade for pigs, calves, grain, hay or whatever people had. I fed the grain and hay to the animals and sold them for a few dollars. I sold cast iron scrap to the junk yard. In 1933 Charles helped his dad run tiie mine at Deer Creek Coal for enough coal to keep the home fires burning. He tried trucking coal to Salt Lake and points along the way. He and Lloyd bought a new Chevrolet 2 ton truck. Charles drove and Lloyd unloaded the coal. They put on 10,000 miles without ever taking off their shoes. Charles fell ill from exhaustion and flu, left trucking and went to work a few days at Hiawatha along with running the farm. On his days off he worked at Bear Canyon Mine which his father had leased.

The fourth time he came home for treatment and sat in the chair, the symptoms began again and schoolhouse furnace and cement. He lost his choice mate of 39 years, the mother of five children, in May 1967. In December he married widow Maude Davis.
