Wellesley widow receives Boston Post cane at 105

WELLESLEY – A long, though unofficial, tradition led Wellesley's Boston Post Cane to pass this week to Herlda Senhouse, the town's oldest resident at 105, who joked that her lack of children led to a more stress-free – and longer – life.
Senhouse received the gold-knobbed walking stick surrounded by friends Thursday at the Glen Grove, a senior housing community. Senhouse also received a small commemorative pin, a certificate and flowers. She was allowed to keep those items but the cane went back into a safe at day's end.
