P.S. This story was of particular personal note. As a native Pennsylvanian, there were references that I remember well. Tammany died in New Britain, which is one town over from where I grew up.

PL ok!
70: (Welp, that one was sad too. )
4:15 Missed stumble and repeat that needs to be cut. "...happy hunting grounds.... and that he reached the happy hunting grounds alone."
Well, this story was... interesting, I guess... Can't understand why it was chosen for this collection, really. He seems to just be a regular guy trying to live his life while the town busybodies come up with all sorts of theories about him, and not even anything perfidious or uncanny at that.

In any case, it is PL ok.
Perhaps he was considered a local legend? It’s true, there’s nothing uncanny or supernatural about him.

Oh, I enjoyed this one. That last line was hilarious!
PL ok!
EDIT: Uh, whoops. As soon as I typed and posted that, I realized the ending silence here is only about 3 seconds. We need more like 5. So just that little fix!
