CEMETERY, from page 15B hard to support their country from afar, while still support- ing the town in which they lived. Instead of realizing the luxury of having such a historical site to teach a neglected part of history, we've continued to deny its full potential. All I want to do is bring ~ttention to this unfortunate piece of land that should never have been forgotten by its community. Calin Turcotte will give a presentation about the Mary Anna Foote burial issue Saturday, Sept. 17, at "A Grave Occasion." Tickets for the museum fundraiser cost $60 and include dinner, dessert, tours, entertainment and one glass of wine. Tickets are available at Epilog Books and at plumasmuseum.org.
