KEMPTON, Pa. -- An auctioneer has some unusual items to sell Saturday at the Kempton Community Recreation Center -- three skeletons in wooden coffins.
The auctioneer said the skeletons are more than a century old and belonged to a defunct chapter of an international fraternal organization that used them in secret rituals. He said he promised the seller he wouldn't reveal the identity of the organization, but said the Pennsylvania chapter closed because too many members died.
He said the organization bought the bones in the early 1900s from a catalog it used to purchase items for its rituals.
Kempton is in Berks County, about 20 miles west of Allentown. http://www.wgal.com/news/7877856/detail.html

We are strongly encouraged to instruct our families to return our secret-ritual-skeletons to National Headquarters after we die lest they end up at live auction or on eBay.
