Post Hole Digger

by James Pope

Dedicated to all the children that had to forgo childhood, as they were called upon to shoulder family responsibilities far beyond their age. Follow the life of Iowa farm boy James Pope from first memory to age 19, as I created my plan for life. At age 15, I held my father in my arms, as he died. I took his job as janitor of the Macedonia, Iowa, Consolidated School House, supporting my mother and little sister Mary.
