No Friend of Bill W.

By Scoop Cooper

DORSET, VERMONT - A man from Marlboro, Massachusetts has been charged with drunk driving after driving his car onto the lawn of a historic house.  According to State Police, the 55-year-old man was so drunk he drove onto the lawn of the Wilson House because he thought it was a parking lot.  Built in 1852, the home is called the Wilson House because William Wilson, a founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, was born there.  Several AA meetings per week are still held at the site.
     The accused drunk driver is scheduled to appear in Bennington court on January 14.  If he's sentenced to attend AA, at least he'll know how to get to the meetings.
