The Bum Gave All in 1919

From the February 6, 2019, MidWeek  "Looking Back."

1919, 100 Years Ago.

"A big strapping fellow put in an appearance at the police station last night, and asked for a night's lodging.  When asked if he had any money, said he was broke, and that he had given $100,000 to the Red Cross, and had helped every other war cause with his money.

"The man gave his name as Fred Sturgeon of U.S.A. and after a night's sleep at the city hall, he was accompanied to the western city limits and given  the usual orders for such characters."

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back.
