Great look back.

Comment on Harry Beetison, “King of the Hoboes” by Constance Weston https://isuspecialcollections.wordpress.com/2014/08/05/harry-beetison-king-of-the-hoboes/#comment-1567 Tue, 09 Dec 2014 13:30:41 +0000 http://isuspecialcollections.wordpress.com/?p=4337#comment-1567 Hi Stephanie,
Harry never did share stories with us. I was only 14 when he passed in 1967. And I have ten brothers and sisters that follow, the youngest born the year Harry died. He was quiet. but very kind. When we went with our father to his grain elevator, Harry would buy us a bag of candy at Seabeck’s store across Hwy 6. One of a few things we remember about Harry. My aunt wrote a page about Harry, telling something about his life. It has 2 color photos from 1963. I have it in my possession.

My brothers, sisters, and I have a few stories about Harry from the 1960’s.
To my knowledge, Harry was King of the Hobos at least twice.
