This historic town, beautifully maintained and preserved, was abuzz on this day as the Vermont Society met at the well-known Old Tavern at Grafton. After a business meeting at Homestead Barn with its elegantly rustic wood, the compatriots dined at Phelps Barn, enjoying a lovely deli buffet. Compatriots then visited the Grafton Museum a charming bastion of local President Fallon travelled to Boston on December 10th and enjoyed an educational day. The weather was unseasonably warm. Compatriots from VT, NH, and MA met at the Green Dragon Tavern as a launching point. The Green Dragon dates to 1657 and history-with its displays of local soapstone, clocks, and other treasures of local pertinence. Gravemarkings Compatriot Thomas Elgan, a board member of the Grafton Historical Society, did much to make the day a success. He was the liaison between the Vermont Society and the Grafton Historical Society. The Grafton Historical Society did a tremendous job coordinating the gravemarkings at Burgess and Middletown Cemeteries, Grafton. The VT Society and its Color Guard R e t u r n t o t h e B o s t o n T e a P a r t y was also the launching point in 1773 as colonists gathered to protest a British tax on tea. The Old South Church was the site of a reenacting debate over the Boston Tea issue: one felt like it really was Among those attending the events were Compatriot and were greatly honored to participate at the invitation of the historical society. Members of the Color Guard assisted with the placement of the handsome markers and the rich balsam wreaths. The following 12 Revolutionary War veterans were memorialized: At Middletown Cemetery Asa Fisher; Bartholomew Fuller; Elijah Phelps; Edward Putnam; Miles Putnam; John Smith; Joseph Thatcher; John Weir; John Wooley At Burgess Cemetery William Stickney; Peter Tarbell; Hezekiah Wetherbee. A reception followed the gravemarkings at the Chapel building in town. Thank You to all participants & organizers!! Mrs. Roger Floyd of NH; former PG and Mrs. Hank McCarl; and Compatriot and Mrs. Geoffrey Colby and Geoffs mother, Ruth. A grad student from Emerson College interviewed Compatriots McCarl and Fallon about the significance of the Boston Tea Party.
