Dynamite!

I am indebted to Rita McBride of the Hobart Historical Society for finding and printing out this story. Back when I was reading the 1916 microfilm, the name Hazelgreen meant nothing to me.

We've already met Malcolm Hazelgreen. The sister living in the same home was probably Elna.


The last paragraph mentions a similar event happening to Fred Kappelman "nine years ago," which would take us to about 1907; this is why I think Fred was still alive some years after his marriage to Nora Ensign.

That's a pretty big grudge match going on when someone dynamites the side of your house....
