President Kennedy Spoke Here
On the west side of the old Courthouse, on a low north wall by the entrance, there is a weather-beaten plaque.
You can barely read it with your eyes, the point-n-shoot wasn’t up to the challenging light conditions (yes, I will always blame the equipment ).
The message here is in the text, so I pushed the image for detail. (text follows image)
