Mentions in letters and diaries and autograph albums of people otherwise forgotten or just known by dates and places. Hopefully there will always be people fascinated by boxes of letters found in an attic and willing to put in the time to give these folks their due. Thanks for adding a bit of light to Arthur Morris!

With my father gone it was up to me to take care of my mother and this developed into a serious responsibility, resulting in several years in succession in my using my savings to take my mother on a two-week vacation to various summer resorts as my father had done.<br /><br />One summer's vacation I spent in Maine. A school boy friend, Arthur Morris, had become a Minister and was assigned to a little church in an isolated fishing village just above Bar Harbor, called Steuben. After leaving the train at Bangor, a little single-track branch line seemed to have had its winding track laid so as to curve around larger trees in its path through the thick woods. I was told that a big bull Moose the day before had angrily bucked the locomotive. It killed the moose but also stopped the train."<br /><br />Just a little possible background information on Arthur Morris.<br />Judy Guion<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
