I just returned from a cousin's funeral in South Texas. While there, I visited a ranch house that is currently owned by a seventy-something relative. Near the house is this old structure.
My relative told me that he remembered using it in the 1940s. It was referred to as "the necessary," he said. I remember the ranch house well, though not the necessary.
While there, my brother and I visited another ranch house on a plot of land my father bought after World War II. It was the locale for our earliest memories. My brother told me that it, too, had a necessary until sometime in the fifties. I didn't remember one way or the other.
