Hillig died September 12, 1954, having sold his business in 1947. He left an estate of $100,000 divided between eleven churches, six Masonic lodges, eighteen relatives and twenty-five friends. Later, the castle was largely destroyed by vandals, but there still remain as memorials, a beautiful stained glass window in the Lutheran Church in Liberty and a large boulder located on the Liberty Golf Course with a plaque which recalls the start of his trans-Atlantic flight.
Above is an excerpt from sullivan county history and speaks of a plague...hmmm
You are very close at number one, the plague is a spot which you should plot, go in and eat, and count the feet, from there to here, let's have a beer
I am not familiar with the Big G course but is there a clubhouse with a bar? Could this be the reference of the plague above?
