Colt family supports Bristol through two September events
Ethel Barrymore Colt will present Curtains Up on September 6 and John Drew Colt will direct What's Wrong With the Girls on September 16, benefiting Bristol Historical Society and the Citizens' Scholarship Foundation. Linden Place, linked to the DeWolf heirs, remains a symbol of Bristol’s enduring ties and community spirit. Nelson Blount’s stance against an Interstate Commerce Commission rail line shows independent business resolve, with a New Hampshire tourist operation spared interstate interference.
