Smutty Nose Murders Gun… sort of..

3:13 pm in Other Star Sites by Pelicans Are Pelicans

Here in Dover,(NH) we have a bar called “The Barley Pub”-which primarily sells local/microbrews, no food and has live music. On days that it snows, they sell $1 Guiness. (I don’t care for Guiness, but – it was a buck!), it was also the only place open yesterday….nasty nasty snow storm, anyways…..On the wall, over the bar, a rifle of some sort is mounted with a plaque that reads “This gun was used in the capture and transport of Louis Wagner, of the Smuttynose Island Murder infamy in 1843″ or something like that, the only connection that I can see, is that they sell Smuttynose Ale, but I thought if anyone was REALLY interested in that, or has a spare minute on their way to or from the Island, its kind of neat, plus we have a great down town to walk around…. or come stay at The Schooner House Inn! :)

Memorial Service for Ruth Koe

3:36 pm in Pelican News by Pelicans Are Pelicans

Star friends,

We just wanted to remind people that Ruth Koe’s memorial service is this coming Sunday, February 18th at 2:00PM at the First Church and Parish of Dedham (UUA.)

We also wanted to invite anyone who wanted to, to share a little story or a memory at the service.

If you will be unable to attend but would like your story or memory shared please feel free to send it to me, so we can be sure to include it.

Star Island and the people of Star meant A LOT to Ruth and we wanted to be sure that her Star family was included.

Thank you on behalf of Ruth’s family for all the kind words we have received over the past month.
