Did you know that Washington Irving may have based his famous "Legend of Sleepy Hollow" on a Farmington Valley folk tale? Come join us as local author Kara LaBella shows us the evidence for this theory, offering glimpses of the real-life locations, as well as Revolutionary War-era history of our region. Attempt to solve the mystery of The French Paymaster, meeting LaBella's cast of characters along the way, including General Philip Schuyler, friend to George Washington, and Vicomte Charles Dumas, officer of Rochambeau, along with actual citizens of colonial Canton's community. Come to your own conclusions over the course of this engaging evening! Copies of her book will be available for purchase and signing at the event.
