Glencoe and District Historical Society – The Bandit of Skunk’s Misery

May 7 @ 7:00 pm

Paul Langan is going to tell us about the legend of Orval Shaw—The Bandit of Skunk’s Misery.  We often hear fragments of stories and myths.  Paul has done the research.  He is going to talk about the process of collecting information for historical books and about how this booklet came together.

Orval Shaw never killed anyone or committed any major crime, yet from 1921 to 1934, Orval’s life of petty crimes led to some of the most sensational police hunts to try and capture him.
