You always meet interesting people at the HSF and this month was no exception. Michael Frechette digs privies. He is not a professional archaeologist but does it for the love of finding interesting things. You can read about his at this link to a story done by the Star last year. The video below was our Periscope interview done on the spot. Frechette is talking to the HSF about making a presentation at a future meeting.
The program was topped off with a presentation by Sara Brower on Robert Matlock who was the clerk who actually wrote by hand the Declaration of Independence. See the video below that was done on Periscope so sorry but it is unedited but complete.
