? Information on VeohVTVideo
& Audio of Past Androscoggin Historical Society Talks
(Video clip of the Month "The World of Indian John"
Below is the link to VeohTV where you can either view a short video clip &/or the full talk given by
Canyon Wolf (aka Nancy Lecompte) at the AHS on 2007-02-26, Subject: "The World of Indian John"
"A Night on the Town" (Talk given by Mr. Keith W. Brann)
For the most part this talk would be good for all age groups but as it does include the subjects of KKK and a few other unpleasent events, perhaps parents should view it with their children
Q & A after the "A Night on the Town"
