Event Title	Details	Start Date	End Date	Time
Patricia Curran - A Murder Mystery	A talk by Stephen Cameron Stephen Cameron a well known local author and historian will give a talk on the unsolved murder of Patricia Curran, a judge’s daughter in 1952. Speculation has surrounded the events and motives leading up to the murder and the subsequent police investigation. The unexplained murder of a young girl in a relatively crime free society has provided many conspiracy theories and Stephen Cameron’s talk will be greatly anticipated.
