Podcast 47 – Ruth Colbath: A Woman Who Waited

Ruth Colbath: A Woman Who Waited

In Episode 47 Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger visit the Russell-Colbath house near the Kancamagus Highway in Albany, New Hampshire, to learn about Ruth Colbath; a woman who waited. In September of 1891, Ruth’s husband Thomas left their home one afternoon and didn’t return. Each night for the next 39 years Ruth lit a lantern and set it in the window for him. But whatever became of Thomas?
