Cosmopolis Fire Department

Description

Thanks to Sam Talley who notes: "Volunteer Firemen Hank Mullin, back row 2nd from the right, owned the Square Deal grocery store across from the fire department. During the day when the fire siren sounded, Hank would run out of his store wearing his butcher's apron and head to the fire trucks. Soon cars would come racing from all directions to the trucks and away they'd go to the fire. The young man next to him on the end is David Keith who lived a couple of block away from me. One time his mother had a yard sale and sold me an old guitar in an old case for $5. I put it away because it did not have any strings. Years later I learned it was a valuable 1922 Martin guitar in its original case. Needless to say, I still have it."
