Notes
Interview transferred from tape to DVD on May 9, 2016. Tape and DVD copy returned to Marty Van Lith. Quite long interview, with many interesting tidbits of local history of the 20th century, including observations of racial, ethnic and religous intolerence especially during the earlier half of the century. A cautionary note: even though a "first person" account, one needs to be careful of the facts, some of which I know not to be true whan validated by other local sources, such as the local newspaper accounts.
