WE NEVER FORGET: Christmas Eve 1913
Italian Hall Massacre at Calumet, Michigan

At about 4:40 PM a man with a hat pulled low over his eyes, a long dark coat with the collar turned up, and a Citizens Alliance button pinned onto the left side of the coat, came up the front stairs, entered just inside the main hall, and yelled, “Fire, Fire.” There was no fire. The man turned immediately went back down the stairs, out of the building, and disappeared down the street.
