*[Yes, "The Prairie Clock" surely is a true story. It was told to Aunt Carolyn "first hand" by "Grandma Smith", the little girl who lived it. She was Emma Lawrence Smith, the oldest child in the story. After a pioneer childhood, she married and raised her own family in Kansas. She came to visit quite often and was full of memories and stories of early life on the Kansas prairie.]
