Dwight Williamson: Logan cemeteries tell many stories of the deadAs far as I know, you cannot bring back the dead. However, I don’t have any problem in bringing “up” the dead — as in, why are you bringing up that subject?. Well, the reason I’ve chosen this topic is because when one thinks of the deceased, the word “cemetery” is almost always associated with the dead. It is in the solitude of graveyards that many secrets have been buried along with the lifeless bodies that make up the earthly void, and there most certainly are interesting stories connected to certain cemeteries in Logan County.11 days ago
