■Former local resident, Rebecca Rule returns to Boscawen Public Library on Tuesday to present “Moved and Seconded,” her colorful portrait of New Hampshire’s unique tradition known as the Town Meeting.

The author describes the rituals, traditions and history of the Town Meetings and introduces the audience to a colorful cast of characters who keep the drama cracking.

■New Hampshire residents are all too familiar with the effects of Mother Nature which resulted in the need to reschedule the Boscawen Town Meeting. The new meeting will be held on March 25 and starts at 9 a.m. It will be held in the Boscawen Elementary School on Best Ave.
