When President Truman got the key to Leadville

Letter from Beverly Pologar

Local history – January 1997 – Colorado Central Magazine

Editor:

The article, “The Whistle Stops Don’t Stop Here Any More,” (November 1996 issue of Colorado Central) brought to mind President Truman’s whistle stop in Leadville in 1948. I recall going to the depot at Malta with my mother and my grandfather. I was six years old and in the first grade. The prospect of seeing the president was exciting.
