Haliburton's Evergreen Cemetery plus La Corriveau

This week, Kate talks about early Haliburton village's attempts to create Evergreen Cemetery - their first cemetery in the late 1860's. The type of service you don't necessarily initially think about and plan for when carving a new community out of the wilderness. Plus Paul talks about Marie-Josephte Corriveau - a young woman in 1760's Quebec who was convicted of murdering her husband, was executed and subsequently became a scary folk-lore figure in popular Quebec culture. A boogielady, if you will.
