In July, 1875 Henry Corbin opened a saloon in Westerville and the Whiskey Wars began. Bishop William Hanby had a prominent role in this anti-alcohol battle. There will be presentations at Hanby House on Saturday, August 2 at 1:30; 2:15 and 3:00 to share some of the stories of these dramatic events in our community's history and the Hanby connection. The house will be open for tours from 1-4pm. This event is free and open to the public.
