Possum Hollow 16

Two chapters: The Hermit of Rainsboro and Evasion.

Things are not always as they seem, or have been told that they were. Tricia finds this out when she follows a suggestion from Hoke and visits an old man in Rainsboro. “Mr. King”, as he calls himself, paints a totally different picture of what happened on that morning in October, 1967 at the house in Possum Hollow.

Rainsboro, Ohio is a real place in Highland County on either side of US route 50. My former father-in-law claims Rainsboro as the place where he came from. At one point he talked about the “Lytle Boys” from around the same area and how they were constantly getting into trouble. The most famous of the clan got into a bar fight in Hillsboro a few years back and was sent to the Chillicothe Correctional Institute. Johnny Lytle is better known as Johnny Paycheck… the same person who gained fame for the song “Take this job and shove it…”

Enough of the history lesson. On with the show…
