In the new year, the Enoch Turner Schoolhouse in Toronto, Ontario, will be hosting a series of lectures by mystery writers who set their books in Toronto. There is a general admission charge of $8 per lecture or three lectures for $20.

On Tuesday, February 6th, RVC author Mel Bradshaw will be kicking off this series with a lecture on the following topic:

"Rules out of School"
What was the legal world awaiting the Enoch Turner School’s graduates? And how was that world affected by the science and religion of the time? (dealing with these issues as they arise in his novel "Death in the Age of Steam", a historical mystery set in 1856.)

Refreshments are served from 7 p.m. and the lecture starts at 7:30.

The location of the schoolhouse is 106 Trinity Street, one block east of Parliament, just south of King Street East in Toronto. The King 504 streetcar stops right at Trinity Street.

The organizer is Shirley E. Hartt, Curator, Enoch Turner Schoolhouse, Phone: 416 863 0010.
