Mister Ron's Basement #1590

We are wrapping up our second week of readings from George W. Peck's 1900 book 'Sunbeams.'

Once again we offer a reminiscence of Peck's tenure as Governor of Wisconsin. It's a tale of coolness and insanity, and it is called 'When Dad Was Scared.'

Time: approx eleven and a half minutes
