For as rough a year as it’s been, there’s still a lot that I’m thankful for. Having a job, for one. Having a wonderful wife, and being able to afford her going to school to do what she wants.

Just before 6 a.m. on April 14, 1916, Solomon Sudler was led out of the Carroll County Jail, a stone building that was nearly 100 years old, and walked up a set of newly-constructed wooden steps.
