He tells of the men who didn&#8217;t make it, clinging to the rocks.<\/p>\n<p>He was one tough bird: Survived, came back to Pennsylvania with enough gold to buy a farm near Corry, married Bessie Crowell and raised children, among them Ralph William Blakeslee, Grandfather&#8217;s father. Ralph nearly died during the 1918 flu epidemic when he was a teenager and he was in delicate health ever after.<\/p>\n<p>Later he was obsessed with preaching the gospel and rented a room in a public elementary school in Detroit in the 1930s for his Sunday school. Imagine teaching the gospel in a public school building these days; we&#8217;re too enlightened.<\/p>\n<p>Ralph&#8217;s car was a 1936 Chevrolet, <a href=\"https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/id52362-grandfather-says-a-look-back-at-the-29-cars-ive-owned-during-my-life.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">which eventually trickled down to Grandfather<\/a>. It had an auxiliary crank for starting, and a good thing too. It was the middle of the Great Depression and Ralph didn&#8217;t have the money to replace the battery, so he cranked the car to life.<\/p>\n<p>Grandfather remembers Ralph pulling into gas stations and asking to buy &#8220;a goblet&#8221; of gas. He got enough gas for a dime or so to get us to Sunday school and back, thanks to the grace of God and sympathetic gas station attendants.<\/p>\n<p>The end.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_55109\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/grandfather-dan-and-ralph.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-55109\" class=\" wp-image-55109\" src=\"http:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/grandfather-dan-and-ralph.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"530\" height=\"363\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/grandfather-dan-and-ralph.jpg 778w, https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/grandfather-dan-and-ralph-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/grandfather-dan-and-ralph-768x526.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-55109\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Chevrolet early on.
