A Vermont Humanities Council Speakers Bureau event hosted by the Pawlett Historical Society will present Howard Coffin, Vermont's Remarkable Sharpshooters and Gettysburgh at the Pawlet Town Hall on Thursday, April 25 at 7:00 pm. The Town Hall is located on 122 School Street in Pawlet Village. Vermont sent far more sharpshooters to the Union Armies than any other state, on a per capita basis. Historian Howard Coffin will discuss his recent research into this little recognized group and consider the reasons why Vermont may have been so well- represented in this elite group of marksmen. The event is free, accessible to those with disabilities and open to the public. For more information contact the Pawlett Historical Society at tjones@together.net or 802-325-3382
