In this episode of the ordinary extraordinary cemetery podcast, Jennie and Dianne are joined by returning guest Hugh Yemen as he shares a tale that in many ways is truly stranger than fiction! The story begins with a tornado that left tragedy and death in its wake in Fort Smith, Arkansas in January 1898. However, it is events that take place shortly after this tragedy that becomes a different sort of "twister" that takes us from scandal in a cemetery, to a sensationalized newspaper exposé, and eventually culminates in "explosive" courtroom drama! With no prior knowledge from Hugh of this Ordinary Extraordinary story Jennie and Dianne reveal their completely unscripted reactions alongside their listeners!
