Letter: Portsmouth Historical Society is not done yet!

To the editor:

This year, the Portsmouth Historical Society has held, sponsored or supported several events relating to Portsmouth history, with two more yet to come. 

On Wednesday, Nov. 2, Society President and Town Historian Jim Garman will be presenting a photographic lecture on “Portsmouth: A Hundred Years Ago,” using some of his rare photographs of Portsmouth in the early 1900s. 

On Thursday. Dec. 15, he will give another lecture on Portsmouth history, this time on “Island Park in the early 1900s.” Both lectures will be held at the Portsmouth Free Public Library from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Please save the dates and join us to learn more about Portsmouth’s past.

These two lectures are free and open to the public but space at the library is limited so please call 401/683-9457 to reserve your seat. And please visit our website at www.portsmouthhistorical.org to take our survey and tell us what kind of events or subjects you would like us to offer in 2017.
