Description :

A wistful street sweeper delights a young admirer and surprises adults with heroic tales of Custer at Little Big Horn. In 1957, "The O. Henry Playhouse" featured veteran actor Thomas Mitchell as O. Henry, who narrated his own short stories to an array of characters from a publisher and a barber to a bartender and a cop. Each episode offered a creative peek into how O. Henry composed his tales, occasionally having the writer meet his characters when he discovered the story he would later write. Cast highlights for this episode include Preston Foster, Paul Engle, Thomas Brown, Henry, and Kathleen Freeman.
