 introduction

Harold moved to Chicago after fighting in the Civil War. There he met his wife, Abbie. They have three daughters: Margaret, Leah and Lillian. This is his fourth year working for Pullman. Though he is a soft spoken man, the other porters and crew look up to Harold for his work ethic and steadfast friendship.

“You show your dignity to the world through your life. Through discipline and dedication to your work. Through how you love your family. You carry yourself as a gentleman, remind people of your name, and slowly everyone around you starts to take notice.”
