Nininger has a brief article on the Holbrook shower pages 13-14 in his book Out of the
Sky - An Introduction to Meteorites (Dover Publications, 1952). The boy is mentioned
at
the top of page 14.

Just wondering, who was the boy who came into the diner (?) saying that it
was raining rocks? Is he still alive and has he ever been interviewed?

Jim and List,
The best person to answer this question would be our Holbrook historical
expert and fellow List member, Dave Andrews. I can't recall Dave ever
mentioning the boy in any of our conversations.
However, I am aware of at least one eyewitness to the Holbrook fall that is
still alive.
