SEYMOUR - Seymour Library is pleased to announce that Mike Allen will present a talk on "The Leatherman" at 6:30 p.m. Dec. 6.
For six years during the late 1800s, this so-called "hobo" hiked the same 360-mile, circuitous route through CT and NY every 34 days like clockwork. Residents could predict when he would return to their town.
Wearing a self-made suit of leather, from head to toe, he conversed with no one and slept in caves. And we still don't know who he was. But, people loved him.
This is an in-person event and no registration is needed to attend. The Library is at 46 Church St.
