A TRIBUTE TO FRANK J.
BARTHEN
The
original Honey Pot was a gelding, but that didn’t stop the shaggy brown burro
from having several “offspring.”
From
time to time, a new mild-looking, but wild-performing burro would be added to
Barthen’s traveling show.
Each
would be christened Honey Pot.
“Hey,
I’m a showman. I figured I had license to make up a few things along the way,’’
he said with wink.
Launching
a whole troupe of Honey Pots wasn’t the only time Barthen played fast and loose
with a donkey’s name to put food on his family’s table.
TRIBUTE CONTINUES TOMORROW -- MAY 22
