I remember Mom reading the paper about the trial of Rudolph Haughman, the man who kidnapped Charles Lindbergh’s baby.
I remember when Elizabeth and Justin were going together they would come out to our house and we would play games, cards, etc….. They always had a bag of candy with them. this was in the late 1930’s.
When I was small I always worried about someone putting a ladder up to our bedroom window and kidnapping and killing one of us. It was something I worried about for years. No one ever told me you had to be rich to have a child kidnapped, or I wouldn’t have thought it might happen to us. That was an awful time, To have something like that happen to your child would be next to living in hell.
That is a big fear for a little person!
