"The Hair After"

Westminster MD
I appreciated the play of words on the attractive sign "The Hair After" -- read more to see why in this place. This sign seems a bit incongruous as it appears on a nicely preserved antebellum building across from the Welcome Center and Carroll County Historical Society. This county was named after my kinsman Charles Carroll and was the site of a small battle (Corbitt's Charge) as a troop of Delaware Cavalry struck Stewart's Confederate column that was part of the ANV force operating in Maryland and Pennsylvania before Gettysburg. They fought another skirmish down by Grace Church and the Courthouse where two lie buried--awaiting their fate on that Last Great Judgment Day in "The Here After"
