Brearley House for the Lawrence Historical Society's annual Hogmanay bonfire, a Scottish tradition to celebrate the New Year and toss last year's bad memories into the fire. If visitors didn't bring their own lists, paper and pencils were available to write down all the bad things from the previous year that they wished to toss into the fire.
