Dadeville’s Roy Mathis returned to Zazu’s Verandah Dec. 3 for part 2 of his Tales of Dadeville presentation – The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Mathis presented the first half of his telling of Dadeville’s history on Sept. 24. He left his audience hanging with the story of two escaped convicts that received a death sentence for killing a man. After they killed him, they stole the man’s shoes, which led to their apprehension.

Mathis began part 2 of his presentation with an explanation for the end of the exchange of prisoners between the North and the South at the end of battles in the war between the states.
