My Life Story
I was born in Freetown, Sierra Leone on September 29, 1923 to the late Shadrack & Juliana John (nee Frith).
My father was a quiet fellow. He loved books and was an avid reader. He was always seen with his pipe in his mouth and a book in his hand. I was told that before I was born, he had an accident in his job and later had to find another job. He worked at the Cable and Wireless and when he had the accident and could not use his right hand, he practiced writing with his left hand. He was a storekeeper at G.B. Ollivant and was nicknamed Mr. Honesty because he was honest to a fault.
