Lost Reflection


     Montgomery City Hall is reflected in my photo of the now-moved base of a statue of Hank Williams. The singer's funeral was held in the auditorium of City Hall, and the statue of him stood in the park across from the building for years.

                                                                                            The statue and base were moved last year to the downtown entrance to the Montgomery Riverfront, as seen in my photo to the left. 
     The other historic photo (obviously not mine) shows the  crowds at city hall to see Williams' body in 1953.   

January 4, 1953
