William Bradley Landon Jr.

Description

Bradley Landon was born on October 20, 1899. He was a ten-pound baby and he grew to be a very strong, handsome boy. He had a hot temper and would become very angry at people. He never was good with girls, so when he met Kathryn Lehrer Lindner he needed Kenneth's opinion of her. Kenneth talks again about the events leading up to and following Bradley's death.
