Description

Historian Eddie Ellis presents an amazing new story that has never been heard before! Black Preacher Saves Passenger Train During Havelock Flood, 1916. The star of the show was an early pastor of the Hyman Chapel AME Zion Church, who saved probably hundreds from death and injury on the railroad line through town during a hurricane-related storm in 1916. We'll travel back in time to a very embryonic Havelock in telling this tale. This author event and book signing is sponsored by the Friends of the Havelock Library.
