I’ve been thinking of the Book of Abraham papyri a bit today because of their connection to Ohio, and specifically because we drove through Parkman, Ohio, this afternoon — the town where Michael Chandler, who sold the papyri to Joseph Smith, farmed until his death in 1866.  He’s buried there, in the West Farmington Cemetery.

 

Unfortunately, we were in a bit of a hurry today, and, anyhow, the sky was pouring down rain.  Otherwise, I would have paid my respects.
