Rocky Mountain Justice (The Legend of Camel's Hump)
“He had worked his way west until he found the village of Dublin. He said it reminded him of his little home town in the German Alps. He had left Germany during the difficult years that preceded World War Two; the years when Hitler was “purifying” the country. Otto didn’t speak of it often, but when he did, it was with a tremendous sadness.
He would tell his friends that he just didn’t understand how normal people could become so evil; so unable to see the bad things that their government was do...ing. It was something that Otto just could not understand, so he had spoken out and had come to the attention of the German Brown Shirts. As a result, he had to flee his native country in the dark of night. Now he was here, where he struggled to learn English, but still spoke with an accent that made him virtually unintelligible to most people. But the teens of Dublin had been raised in and around Otto’s store and its soda fountain, so they understood him perfectly. Otto’s soda fountain was their unofficial headquarters and Otto was always a friend they knew they could trust.MoreLess
