Old gent in our area took to driving his 8N after he lost his license for DUI- ended up getting another DUI on the tractor. I was a jailer in the county jail (in 1973) when he was serving 6 months. He was a regular around the jail, and they gave him his own key and made him a "trusty" as soon as he came in. I used to talk with him on graveyard shift, when neither of us had anything to do. After he got out, we contracted with somebody to put up our hay on the farm we had just bought, because we didn't have any equipment. I came home from work, and all the grass around the barn, orchard, etc. had been cut- wife said the man who cut the hay had come to the door after finishing the field, and asked if he could mow the farmstead- she asked how much he would charge, and he said, "Oh, nothing- your husband was the only guy who treated me like a human being around the jail."
