Laurel Hill Cemetery
October 12, 2008
2 p.m., $15 Laurel Hill has its brave military heroes like George Gordon Meade, its uplifting reformers like Sarah Josepha Hale, and selfless philanthropists like Robert Carson. But what about the less than pure spirits? The South Philly gangster who got whacked when he tried to infiltrate the Schuylkill County numbers racket? The chemical heiress who lost her money in an infamous Broadway bomb starring the producer's talentless girlfriend? The final resting places of these troubled souls will be among the many stops on our tour of Laurel Hill's scandalous, sinful and sordid side.
