Dal seemed very handsome and witty as all the adults were kept entertained by his anecdotes. He was my mother’s first cousin. As children, Dal’s father, Mel Newfield (Hazel Dalton), paid my mother, Dorothy Dalton, and Dal $5 if they would teach Dal’s sister, Marian, to swim. The two took Marian to a wide irrigation ditch, tied a rope around her waist and threw her in. Marian later said she nearly drowned but she did learn to swim.
Tough people those Dalton’s.
