    The reference to Henry Patrick at the top of the page above seems a bit odd in several ways. There seems to
    be some evidence that Patrick was interested in politics, but none that he ever held any political office, so I
    don't think he'd be regarded as a politician. Also, it seems strange to mention that he had a warehouse,
    without saying that it was used for supplies for his two grocery, dry goods, and feed and grains stores. He was
    in the grocery business for his entire adult life; not just during the 1930s. More on Henry Patrick.
