Walpole Historical Society is presenting the first in our Speaker Series this Saturday at 7:00 PM at the Academy. The event is sponsored by the New Hampshire Humanities Council and is free and open to the public. Dr. Marcia Schmidt Blaine will be speaking about Susannah Johnson who was abducted from her home in nearby Charlestown by the Abenaki in the mid 1700’s. She became the prisoner of the Abenaki and French, and this is the story of her life as a captive.
Coffee and dessert will follow the presentation.
