Historical Society Program, Sunday

Mention the Civil War and people naturally think of the division of North and South. There was another deep division less commonly discussed, and on Sunday, Nov. 6 at 2:00 p.m. in the Yellow Springs Senior Center Great Room Wilmington College Emeritus Professor of History Larry Gara will give a program on that division, "Pacifism During the Civil War: Truly a Trial Hour." Professor Gara as a part-time peace activist and author of The Liberty Line: The Legend of the Underground Railroad and Presidency of Franklin Pierce is uniquely qualified to speak on the antiwar movement during the Civil War.

Admission is free, and light refreshments will be served.
