Letter: Battle of Hook coverage deemed inadequate

Editor, Gazette-Journal:

I scarcely know where to begin regarding your latest issue, dated Oct. 24. You are our county’s singular voice. Your coverage of the Battle of the Hook was pitifully poor. This reenactment does not occur annually. This is why I discontinued receiving this pathetic piece of paper.

The cost of this paper was more than actually attending the event. This area is drenched in history. I suggest you look at the Confederate memorial statue and do a historical portrayal of each one of our citizens.

And you won’t want to forget the grand opening of Fort Nonsense in the area, intersection of Routes 14 and 3. It’ll be a heck of a lot more interesting than the bridge scores. You should’ve done detailed history on Warner Hall.
