Calvin Bradford Long was a simple and humble man. He had a tall and lean stature. His daily attire was denim overalls, blue shirt, and an oversized overcoat/jacket (came in his aging years). He was known for telling tales of his fox hounds which he admired so dearly. He provided for his family by farming, carpentry, and cutting hair on his front porch. It is said that everyone got the same cut no matter what they requested or how much he shook for 10 cents.
