• Notes

  Charles Close was a character! He spent a great deal of his lifeconspiring to get out of work. He was a bootlegger and bookie for much ofhis life in Toronto. He worked from time to time, but mostly enjoyed thecompany of rounders and horse players. Chuck had an irreverent sense of humour, and loved to tease peopleand give them nicknames.
