Bath happens to be the sight of the deadliest school massacre in American history. Back in 1927, a farmer wired the local elementary school to explode with dynamite. The explosion killed 45 people and nearly destroyed the entire school.
The last survivor of the massacre died three months ago at the age of 114.
This morning my creepy goth girl self went to the Bath cemetery and took a few pictures of the victims tombstones. It was pretty fascinating but also quite sad.
Always an interesting story.. people forget about it over time.. As one who has lived in Michigan for years - there are so many stories - history, where it is forgotten.. A story like this should be known by more.. to try to show what a tragedy it was..
