"Amos was a handyman around town, drove an old pontiac car with the words "the medusa" painted on it. he lived in e.e. england's hen house and died one winter from pnemonia.
"i don't know of any shop that amos had, he just seemed to be a general handyman. my dad bought the mill and mill pond at arkdale in the early 40's. everything he bought had to have a fence around it. he hired amos to put a fence up. after the second day, he asked dad why he was puting up a fence. dad said to keep people like you out.amos said iam not going to put up a fence to keep myself out of my fishing spot,i quit.
i saw him mowing yards and shoveling snow around town."
