In the early 1950's my family lived in an apartment above what was Kenny's News Agency on State Street. As a kid of ten or so I remember Oscar Hammerstein's driver coming to Kenny's every morning to pick up an arm full of newspapers.
One morning I awoke to two feet of snow, or so it seemed to a little kid, and as I started to walk to the old Doylestown Borough school, out of the east came two horses and riders down State Street. This being an unusual sight, I waited and watched. They were workers on Hammerstein's farm. They came to a halt in front of Kenny's, tied the horses to the parking meter, and as usual picked up the papers, than rode off.
