AND OTHERS!


I remember this Election well. I was a budding politician and hob nobbed
with all of the North Brookfield Democrats. It was an exciting moment in my life! Went to bed at 3:45 AM and it was still undecided if JFK won. He did and Camelot was born. Francis T. Lee and Senator Philip A. Quinn were my contacts. Earlier JFK and JBK came to Quinn's Massasoit Hotel in Spencer. Irving England took their picture. Will learn how to scan...LOL.
