Does anyone remember the name of the little disabled gentleman who had the clock repair, scissor sharpening business at his little house on Woodbury street?
The timepiece repairman was Johnny/Johnnie Whitbeck. I remember him well. I have a lady's watch he cleaned and repaired. He even researched its age, made in 1887. The story told to me: His parents realized his quick mind, yet was confined to a wheel chair, they sought training for him to become a watch repairman and self supporting. His house, by the Milwaukee track, is no longer.
