A Little Story We Found Interesting

Someone shared the story of Fiddlin' Joe on Facebook today and it just struck me as interesting. The folklore aspects of story about sitting on his coffin fiddling on the way to the hanging, and the challenge to find a better player. Then the family supposeably restoring him to life and spiriting him off to live out his life elsewhere. Makes you wonder if there might have been some official doubt about his guilt and some collusion on the disposition of the body. http://nativeground.com/fiddlin-joe-coleman/
