Dean Richmond and Huntington childhood tales in old railroad era
AnOswego train scene shows Dean Richmond, later owner of the New York Central, reacting loudly to a window slap and shock at Falton. The tale links Huntington’s boyhood in Connecticut farms to shrewd, selfless bargaining that foreshadows a railroad empire. The piece also folds in brief notes on Mrs. Jesus Castro’s gold weighed marriage tale from the Santa Catalina area and snippets on diaries of Adams descendants and Vermont wage laws.
