I have had the pleasure to know Ethel and Leo Rutledege for many years. Ethel was one of the best and I can remember dropping in on them at their place on the flats and in the evening there would almost always be popcorn being made on the fireplace. I bought an old threshing machine from Leo and Ethel and to no surprise and the belts and everything else worked although it had not been used sdfort over 20 year.
