Notorious Willis Hester at Mebane Historical Museum
May 18 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Join us on Sunday, May 18, at 3 p.m. at the Mebane Historical Museum for a story on the Notorious Willis Hester. Hester was an active slave thief in Efland, North Carolina, who had a bounty on his head and was being hunted by most of the county. His actions horrified readers nationwide as they followed the news of his exploits. Will he be caught and brought to justice, or will he ride off into the west, never to be seen again? Join us to discover Hester's fate. This event is free and open to the public.
