Was deleting and cleaning out my computer.Boosted an 8 meg Packard Bell to 24 megs almost for nothing, but it gets full. Know 2 Laney lines. Tommy, my age had a crippled dad who used to push a homemade cart sitting on it and sold razor blades. In later years a Stephenville service club gave him a gas powered 3 wheel wheel chair- cart, which he used around Stephenville. About the 1950's some friends who were drinking saw him and offerred to take him home and put his cart in the pickup. Then they thought it would be funny to put him out in Fort Worth. Sounded sick to me. They did , and he was killed near Cresson going back to Stephenville in the cart. Tommy was a well liked and hard working young man, Once we working daylight to dew fall after sundown during WW2 on Riggs- Hollis thresher and he asked off early for a date. The boss turned him down. He came bsck to field, grabbed a pitch fork, ate and swallowed a package of Beech Nut chewing tobacco. He threw up and turned all shades of green. They sent him home about 3 PM . By sundown we were still loading wagons and he drove by from Selden , blew his horn, and waved and had his date. The other Laney was Ben of Johnsville. His son in Skipper's Gap near Maratheal's Gap, married an Edwards and they adopted (I think) 2 children. Buster Edwards was her brother. Ben and Ruth and Mom and dad visited each other and shared fruit and vegetables in 1970-80's Dad at Selden & they at Johnsville. Help any?
