'Voices in the Attic'
Come hear the stories of two Vermont soldiers who served in the Civil War. Inside a wooden box in his parents' attic, Dr. Carlton Young found 250 letters these brothers had written. They were members of the Vermont Brigade, the only brigade in the Union Army consisting of men from only one state. This brigade became renowned for their courage and fighting ability. They fought in many of the most famous battles of the Civil War, and suffered more casualties than any other brigade in the war. Parking, admission and refreshments -- all free. Donations are always appreciated. Co-hosted by the Burnham Memorial Library. Please note that additional parking for this event is available at Our Lady of Grace Church.
