AMAZING !
Anxious to share something I discovered during my trip to Charles Town, WV, this week.

As all of you know, abolitionist John Brown was tried and executed in Charles Town, WV. (it was still considered Virginia at the time, until West Virginia broke free in June 1863)

This week, I visited the many sites related to Brown in this small town and found amazing things.

Below is a picture of me standing on the porch of the Episcopal Meeting House where John Wilkes Booth recited Shakespeare dozens of times during his stay in Charles Town leading up to the hanging of John Brown.

Amazing the terrific condition of this building; I was thrilled to have found that it is still standing and to be on the property where Booth once stood.
