Grover Cleveland lookalike Misner recalls prank filled era
Henry L. Kiner recounts mischief by William O. Misner in Geneseo long ago. Misner impersonated Grover Cleveland, gave reporters fake interviews, and staged pranks during 19th century political stir, including a Fourth of July cracker incident. The piece blends humor with memories of the era and local college notices.
