This is what Joe E. Mellon was offering for sale:
By 1921 this frame building had been moved from Main Street onto the
parsonage lawn along Front Street.
Mr. Mellon found a buyer whose name we don't know — just an ordinary man who contributed as best he could to Hobart's long tradition of demolishing its historical buildings.

(Happier news of some other acquaintances: John Kegebein already planning to rebuild his
burned barn, and Ruth Miller visiting her family on their
farm south of Ainsworth.)
ReplyDeleteDid you notice the article on this page about Myrtle Veal that you mentioned the other day?
Hi Bonnie! Yes, thanks; I think I got the "sudden and unexpected" bit from that article.
