Rarely mentioned, Mrs. Gene Hill is the "Chairperson of the Board" that Hill addresses in his two "Annual Reports." In these reports filled with business jargon, Hill tries to defend his hunting equipment purchases and time wasted hunting as a company expenditure and profit loss. It is clear that Hill must answer to his wife, though undoubtedly she bears many qualities of the ideal hunter's wife and tolerates Hill's passion.
