Philip Teitelbaum's taped recollections







Philip Teitelbaum's taped recollections (Summer 2007)

Note: audio is ON

Peter: Creatchman...is the one that got up in the shul and used to talk about J Emile Dubreuil.

Philip: He said "Absolutley vote for J Emile Dubreuil!" And J Emile Dubreuil actually won. He became
	the alderman in Papineau when he was running against Mr Lamar.

Peter: So you say, you're telling me, that that Eddie Creatchman, the famous wrestling promoter,
       was one of the boys, one of his sons.

Philip: He was one of the sons and I remember him as being younger than I am.

Peter: He died.

Philip: Oh, did he?

Peter: A few years ago - I guess he was born a three or four years after you. Were there other kids there?

Philip: There were other kids and they were older. I don't remember their names.


[We are pretty sure that one of the sons was Eddie Creatchman, who became well known as a wrestling promoter
in Montreal.]
