now stands, he was the thirteenth
child. The family Was exceedingly
poor. Eddie, as he was called,
was practically given away. A
man named Symms in Lancaster,
Mass., “took” Eddie and started to
make a farmer out of him. Beg
ging piteously for a chance at some ;
sort of clerical life Symms took
Eddie to the town’s Savings Bank
and got him a job as errand boy.
hi his spare time he helped the
Chief of the Fire Department., the
Postmaster and the Board of Se

drove a milk wagon after first
