MCHS 2
OAHSM 4 hrs 200 miles
To Columbus at 9:00 for Exec Committee meeting. Site managers of OHS also meeting, so talked with Herb Gary in hall.
Back to Marion to take labels to Margaret Cottrell – She feels the proposed enshrining of an altar at Heritage hall in memory of Pres Harding is a slap in the face to every Baptist. John is church historian – with dates of Harding membership 1884? – Treasurer-Trustee – Trinity minutes (Landes) officiated at funeral – has pew decorated with fresh flowers – church open to mourners. So why enshrine an Episcopalian altar?
To Court House – Found Harding’s will – He left $2,000 to Trinity & $1,000 to Episcopal. Mrs. Harding left $2,000 to Epworth Meth. $2,000 to Trinity & $2,000 to Episcopal – Dr. Wolfe’s (through Klings?) were Episcopalians.
At Engineer’s office got copy of aerial photo of Terradise – 1 inch = 400 feet
Stopped at Wendy’s for chili & frosty – brought home to eat. T.V.
