LIBBY HOWES HOUSING FUND
Mastodon Post

A fund for Libby Howes has been set up via Go Fund Me. Libby, as you may know, is a fixture in Brattleboro. Her house on South Main Street burned down one Sunday night a few weeks ago. The amount being sought here is modest and, in fact, I think too modest. A fund at a local bank and publicity by way of local news outlets would have raised a lot more money, in my opinion. Be that as it may, what we have is a GoFundMe.com fundraiser; and if you have money to donate to this very worthy cause, the following link will get you to an opportunity to do it.

I passed Libby on Canal Street two or three days ago. She looked happy and healthy. We would do well to help her remain happy and healthy.

Today (Tuesday) GoFundMe.com did not seem to be functioning at all well. Trying later would probably be good.

[An older news story that I just received in my email this morning]

[I have been told of negative hearsay about the "reporter" in this case. Don't know, either way, whether any of it is at all true. Notice, though, some unsympathetic comments about the reporter rather than the crime.]

The scene of the crime is next door to Libby Howes's house which lately burned down.

I reported to family about a week ago hearing an explosion from somewhere around the (former?) drug house diagonally across Canal Street from here.  The day before yesterday, while walking on South Main Street, I heard another three explosions.

LIBBY HOWES
Mastodon Post

The Brattleboro Reformer said a GoFundMe account was being set up for Libby Howes, whose house burned Sunday night a week ago. Yet a Web search and a search of the GoFundMe site just now turned up no fund of any sort to help Libby. I should think a fund for her at a local bank, such as Brattleboro Savings and Loan, would make most sense. Does anyone know what, if anything, is being done?
