New Garden Friends Meeting’s annual Hallowe’en lantern tour of its historic graveyard is led by retired professor of Quaker Studies, Max L. Carter, and will include occasional “interpreters” of some of the people whose graves will be visited. Included on the tour will be stories of early settlement in the 1700s; the Revolutionary War skirmishes fought around the graveyard; the Underground Railroad; famous industrialists, reformers, and educators; battles for desegregation; and even famous athletes. The tour is free and open to the public. For information, contact Max L. Carter at: [email protected]
