Reminiscences of a Delphi River Day and a Wild Horse Ride
In Delphi Indiana during the early sixties before Boy Scouts and baseball the kids swam at a mill race hole near Garrett's mill. One hot afternoon a naked boy rode a horse through Main Street to Gresham stables, leaping off as the horse rushed home. Will Kilgore, quick to laugh, recounted the ride and the return of his clothes as friends teased. Kilgore family were prominent local merchants. Will later lived in Fort Wayne and was said to be handsome.
