Mr. Square Cobb was a train switchman, working for the Southern Railway. On April 18, 1969, Cobb failed to show up for work and has not appeared at work since then. It is not completely clear from the record why Cobb failed to return to work after that date. He claimed that he had been "discharged" and he successfully received unemployment benefits on this basis until August 5, 1969.
