“C&NW Hounds”

From November 1954, we have this photograph from a Veteran’s event held at Madison’s Cardinal Hotel. We assume this was at the Cardinal Hotel because of what’s written on the back of the picture – no guarantees! Identified are:

Top Row (left to right): L. Jeru, Engineer; Bob Wilson, Maurice Wilson’s brother; E.B. Keffe; Emory Gesme; Bob Worthman; Bill Fellows.

Bottom Row: Vern Smith, Claim Agent; Sam Searles; unknown; Maurice Wilson; Walter Paulus; Cap Smally; Mrs. Earl Osmundson (worked at the Cardinal Hotel for many years).

Also, written on the back is: “This picture given to M. Deneen by Earl Osmundson, 1/26/85. (Earl was Pearl Bredson’s brother).”

Dewayne found this picture among Keith Porter’s files. Marc: If you have any corrections or if you can tell us more about this event, please let the webmaster know.
