These were the peddlers who sold products or bought goods: like the Rag Man and the Junk Man. They would often stay the night and be fed. "One memorable peddler, a plump old gentleman whose bushy white mustache was rimmed in orange, always timed his visit at noon. How he relished my mothers potato soup! After each leisurely slurped spoonful he would place a forefinger over his mustache and noisily suck in the fringes, while we kids watched in goggle-eyed fascination." Source: The Columbia River Cookbook, by Joan Van Divort (1981),Columbia River Press, ISBN# 0-939688-04-2 I believe this soup was also served at authors restaurant, The Columbia River Kitchen, Wenatchee, Washington (in the late 1970s).
