Speaking of the Dead

 http://www.caldwellcountyhistoricalcommission.org/speakingofthedead.html

Luck has not been kind to this wonderful Halloween season annual event.

Last year, 2019, it was held indoors, in the library, because of wet conditions in the cemetery.

This year, it has been canceled due to the pandemic.  The cancellation notice seems to have not yet made it to the website.  It has been publicized that stories covered in past events will be published on the website.  Apparently, not yet.  Stay tuned.

The traditional event has small groups gathering at some central point in the cemetery, then walking a route where actors portraying the persons interred present a biography of the subjects.  MANY historic figures are in the cemetery.
