"plumbing and kindred practical crafts"


The Rev. Jesse Halsey, clergyman and plumber, October 1910
May 10, 1910 - An interesting arrival will be Mr. Jesse Halsey, a Presbyterian minister who after an intensive course in plumbing and kindred practical crafts is to serve the Mission by superintending drainage installation. He will arrive with his bride in June to stay for a year, probably located at the Guest House.
from Jessie Luther at the Grenfell Mission by Ronald Rumpkey, 2001.
