Event Date: 
Thursday, February 8, 2024 - 6:30pm to 7:30pm

Meet local Huntington-based author Steven Cormier and learn about the history and mystery surrounding the life and death of Parley B. Hutchins.  Parley B. Hutchins lived and worked in Huntington, MA in the mid to late 1800s on property that Cormier currently resides at.  Hutchins's untimely death led to a murder investigation that was never resolved.   The book "Life and Times of Parley B. Hutchins" not only focuses on Parley Hutchins but also on the history and growth of the area and the eventual creation of Huntington, Massachusetts in 1855.

Copies of "Life and Times of Parley B. Hutchins" will be available for purchase at the event.  Special thanks to the Friends of Westhampton Library and the Lyn Keating Program Fund for sponsoring this event.
