Beautiful second floor restoration

  

200 year old letter found!

Letter found in a rats' nest behind the base trim at the Hilary Baker house. The letter is addressed to Mr. H Baker and dated March 23rd, 1815. The text is legible but not necessarily decipherable.  Will post more information after the experts look it over. 

Other things found yesterday while cleaning: a tiny bird skeleton, a few buttons, some periodicals from 1885 (35 cents for mens' garters!), a license plate from 1923, and a tiny wooden comb.

Door restoration

Hard to believe, but these are the same doors, carefully restored by our craftspeople. New molding (lighter in color) courtesy of Van Jester Woodworks.

Victory! Outer doors are finally in on Grace St

It'll look even better when it's painted.
