John Early House

An assaination attempt on Judge John Early in the downtown Palmer Bank!! What? How could this have happened?

Tune in to a new episode of This Week to learn about Judge Early and see his beautiful former home in Historic Laurel Park. Judge Early did a remarkable number of things for our community in his 102 years. Heck, he was the oldest living Boy Scout up until 1999, when he passed away.

Why, he was even climbing up his ladder to delicately care for his cherished fruit trees in his late 90s. He also fancied dancing with the ladies, just about up unitl he died. What a treasured soul.
