Stratford man saves lone telephone pole as relic
Harvey Henke, a retired construction worker in Stratford Washington, has the town's only surviving telephone pole. Pacific Northwest Bell buried lines, so Henke moved the 24‑foot timber pole four feet to a yard display, keeping cross ties and insulators intact. Neighbors have visited and photographed the pole, which isn’t connected to wires but serves as a local landmark. Henke hopes to preserve another pole as wiring evolves.
