There's not a lot of individual in-depth pioneer women's stories from pioneer times. Well, this week Kate talks about the story of Katherine Allcorn in Haliburton County from around the end of the 1800's - and interestingly a butter discussion breaks out between our hosts. Plus, Paul talks about the evolution of capital punishment in Canada, its slow demise, and the last two convicted murderers hung in Canada in 1962.
Kate Butler is the Director of the Haliburton Highlands Museum. Paul Vorvis is the host of the Your Haliburton Morning Show 7 - 9 a.m. Fridays on Canoe FM 100.9 and streaming on your devices. Haliburton County is in cottage country about 2 1/2 hours north of Toronto. You can contact us at [email protected]
