My mother found this going thru her files. Would you all like to have?

Did you know there is a small graveyard in Springs with only one stone? The reason is an African American is buried there. Thomas J. Davis, 1828--1902. Blacks were not allowed to join the army at the start of the Civil War. But they were allowed to join the navy because of their long history in the whaling industry. He served on the Heliotrope. There is much more info on this that Hugh King dug up. I found this out when I was invited to someone's house and going up a very long drive I noticed the lone gravestone. No one seemed to know anything about it. Which I found sad that no one seemed to care enough to find out. Anyway. My hostess contacted Hugh and he found a lot of info on this native son. If the Society is interested, I will forward his findings.

I realize that I haven't posted new books in quite a while so here goes::: New Fiction: Lady in the Lake by Laura Lippman, Hindsight by Iris and Roy Johansen, Lady Clementine by Marie Benedict, A Long Petal of the Sea by Isabel Allende, Treason by Stuart Woods, The Night Tiger by Yangsze Choo, American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins, Djinn Patrol on the Purple Line by Deepa Anappara, Moral Compass by Danielle Steel, The Word I never wrote by Jane Thynne, Crooked River by Preston Child, Blindside by James Patterson and James Born, One Minute Out by Mark Greaney Mysteries: Many Rivers to Cross by Peter Robinson, Lost by James Patterson, Trouble is what I do by Walter Mosley, A Divided Loyalty by Charles Todd and Trace Elements by Donna Leon.
