During the great depression, joseph payne happened to be in a chariton, iowa, grocery store where a woman and child stood ahead of him in line.

Payne was not a wealthy man, but had never married, had no children of his own, and didn’t drink; he owned his own home at 15th and armory, where he’d lived alone 40 years, and used what extra money he had to help others.
