Re: Port Gibson home thieves target historic wood

-It is terrible what these thugs did. I can not figure out what the purpose was.

-in 2003... may have been pre-WIG, a preservation march was organized by John Cleveland. 200 +/- Authentics made a march between the Mississippi River and Port Gibson. This march raised 7,500.00 for preservation. Once we ran the snakes out of the house we spent the night there. The Preservation March was also known as the "2003 Death March".
