Enjoy unique candlelight tours of two historic Richmond sites on Saturday, November 3. Explore the true stories of John Marshall and the Aaron Burr Treason Trial of 1807 at the John Marshall House and Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder plot of 1605 at Agecroft Hall & Gardens. Tours are suitable for ages 12 and up. Refreshments and lively conversation will be served after each tour. Visitors are responsible for transportation.

When is it Treason?
In Jefferson’s early American democracy, when his former Vice President plans to seize parts of Spanish America and make it his own empire, will Chief Justice John Marshall be able to give him his right to a fair trial or will he be presumed guilty of Treason until proven innocent?

300 years earlier in Shakespeare’s England, a group of religiously oppressed English subjects plotted to overthrow the monarch with gunpowder laid under the House of Parliament. Will these citizens be given the protection of the Magna Carta or will they be denounced as traitors to the crown? Does treason have any relevance to our lives today?
