Likely Lad of 200 Pounds
“It was in ’89 that I met Dora. I was in the Kansas City ball team, and was a likely lad. I weighed 200 pounds, trained down, and it was a good man who was able to floor me.
“Dora came to visit her brother-in-law in Kansas City. He is Dick Vaughn, and a very good ‘pal’ of mine. I met her there at his house.
“We took a liking to each other, so I used to have her in the best seat every day at the games when we played on home grounds.
“And she never was slow, I tell you, of giving me credit when I made a double play or lined out a hot one.
