Little House On The Prairie: Season 3, Episode 19 - The Wisdom Of Solomon
Little House On The Prairie on ImdbDrama | Family | Romance | Western
3/7/1977
Solomon Henry, an 11-year-old African American child who feels oppressed by his heritage's lack of opportunity, runs away from his mother and older brother to chase his dream of attending school somewhere. He comes across Charles Ingalls in Mankato, secretly hitches a ride in the back of his wagon, and eventually becomes a guest in the Ingalls' home. As he helps out around the farm and goes to school in Walnut Grove, Solomon's optimistic attitude is a true inspiration to the whole family--particularly Laura, who has been struggling in school recently. Solomon grows in his own faith and hopes for a better future, but it will be tough to escape the pain of his past.

Merlin Olsen suing NBC
added by newsBotMerlin Olsen, who was a football player and then went on to become a sportscaster for NBC and an actor on such TV shows as Little House on the Prairie and Father Murphy, is suing NBC Studios, NBC Universal, and 20th Century Fox for exposing him to asbestos. Olsen was diagnosed with mesothelioma last year and is undergoing chemotherapy.
But the lawsuit doesn't stop there. Because he was exposed to asbestos at a job when he was around 11 years old and also exposed when he was an adult while working at a job involving drywall, Olsen is also suing Sherwin-Williams and Lennox Industries.
Hmmm, I have zero legal training (unless you count watching L.A. Law reruns as legal training), but I wonder if the fact that Olsen says that he was exposed to asbestos when he was younger will affect the lawsuit? Maybe he would have more luck suing the earlier companies rather than NBC? »
