Burton Coate, who owned
the house 18 years before we
bought it, said he was not
aware of a skeleton, so it was
evidently disposed of after
Finley left home.
Does anyone recall when
the house was built? We've
heard it was built by the
person who owned the
town's lumber yard.
There have been a lot of
people work on our house
since the day in early spring
we stood outside in a heavy
coat with a painter, the last
snow of winter was falling,
and found out that it was
going to cost more than we
had anticipated to do what
we wanted to do. Steen and
Riden did the outside
painting, Mike Thompson of
Ripley put on the nearly 50
squares of shingles plus the
tar and gravel on the flat
roof. Howard Rollins and his
wife did the painting,
papering and ceiling work
inside. Tryon Lumber Co.
was low bidder on the storm
windows for the 44 windows
in the house. Claude
Gazaway installed them.
Paint, wallpaper and other
odds and ends came from
Olson Hardware and Perkins
Paint Supply. Pogue Plumb-
ing worked over the under-
side and valves. Perkins
Plumbing installed the hot
water tank and disposal.
Melvin Sager rewired the
house; Shorts Carpet and
Tile did the tile work; the
carpet was bought and
installed by Himes-Mathe-
son Carpet; Bert Dodson did
the paneling and interior
finish work, etc., and Johnny
Payne's crew lowered some
ceilings. The draperies were
done by Margaret Fresh and
son Roger Graham. The light
fixtures came from Harrison
Lighthouse, numerous panes
of glass and mirrors from the
Lee Co. And so it goes.
There have been many
weekends of the family
working scraping windows,
unpacking boxes, hanging
pictures, mowing the yard,
trimming shrubbery, clean-
ing the garage (3 different
times), etc. But we're finally
finding an evening or two
and even a Sunday afternoon
where we can sit down for
more than 15 minutes at a
time.
If you've never tried to
re-do an old house, you
ought to do it once. If you've
done it once -- that's
enough!

Many of you who voted in
our Telephone Poll feature in
The Journal this week no
doubt found the "Yes"
telephone number with a
busy signal. A reader called
to tell us about it Sunday.
The telephone company
fixed it Monday morning and
promises it won't happen
again. We're sorry for the
inconvenience and please
vote again. This was a
mechanical thing that
shouldn't happen often.
