New Doty Land Podcast: Christmastime In Hancock During Depression Years 1929-1932

A fire that destroys a large portion of Hancock’s Main Street, the career of Stanley Hamilton, the 33-year tailoring job of Gus Lowandowski who builds a house on S. Lake Street, the tragic death of Frank Sigourney, what is playing at the Hancock Theatre, a Booth family wedding, the trial of Elmer Huckins, local sports scores, how a boy in 1929 wants snow for Christmas, along with the comings and goings of village residents makes for a fast paced episode of Doty Land.  The Depression years at Christmastime in Hancock will take listeners back to shopping for gifts with local merchants as former radio broadcaster Gregory Humphrey paints a picture with words. A 38-minute podcast makes it feel as if the latest edition of the Hancock News has been published.
