William Frank Heiden - We used to go sparrow hunting with him
(referring to a farm worker named Bill Miller) back when there was
a bounty on sparrows. He used to put the dead sparrows in his
pockets and he’d go to divide them up and we’d sneak into his other
pocket and take one out while he wasn’t looking.
Marie (Heiden) Tommelein - I used to hold the flashlight for
Art and
