Will Leave House Only After
Death - She Has Seen Savannah
Grow From u Village to It's Pres
emit Size.
Born in the house, No. liz Brough-
ton street, east, more than eighty
years ago, Mrs. Susannah B. Patter-
son still resides there.
During her long residence in this
one house she has seen Savannah grow
to city of size and prominence.
With the exception of four or Eve
years Mrs. Patterson has lived her
life in this one house. Since 1861 she
has lived in it continuously. Prior to
that time she lived for two or three
years in another portion of the city,
but her whole life has been spent in
Savannah.

naturally in demand, and many efforts
have been made to buy it from Mrs.
Patterson. But she refuses to sell I'M
der any consideration.
Would Not Part With House.
'I was born here and I intend to
die right here" the old lady said, in
speaking of the efforts that had been
made to induce her to sell. THE old
house, as you see, is falling to pieces.
1t cannot last much longer. But l
tell them it will stand as long as I
live. That is all l want, and am
going to stay right here"
Mrs. Patterson was born in the house
she now occupies in January, 1924.
She was the daughter of George H.
Ashe, then prominent business man
Of Savannah, and member of the
volunteer fire department. From the
time of her birth until her marriage
she lived in this house.
Her father moved from the Brough-
ton street residence to Taylor street
and he persuaded Mr.. and Mrs. Pat
terson to take an adjoining house For

she now occupies. AS soon as she
came into possession of the house she
moved back to it,, and has lived there
continuously since. When Mrs. Pat
terson moved into the house in 1861
the business district was all on the
Bay and further west on Broughton
street. There were only residences in
the neighborhood of the house then.
Growth of Business District.
With the passing of the years, how
ever, the bushes district has been
gradually extended until it now COM
pletely surrounds the little house.
Though the house is old and al
most crumbling, Mrs. Patterson would
not exchange it for the finest mansion
in the land.
II have lived practically my whole
life in this house;' she said. Except
for the few years out on Taylor street,
this has been my only home. I was
born here. married here. and here 1 will

CAPT, BLUM LIKES
PLAN FOR PLAZA
A SPECIAL APPROPRIATION
WOULD HAVE TO BE SECURED FOR
,r FROM NATIONAL GOVERNMENT.

ant Blum Suggests That Proper
senators and Congressmen-Matte
should Be Brought Before Them
tn Form of Petition From Trade
RIDDLES, city Council and Business
DIan-ThinIxs Entire Cost of secur-
t,C Improvement Would BE $780,
900.
nIaza to the north of the postof-
Eco is heartily favored by Postmaster
Harry Blum.
The plan suggested by Mayor Myers
is one that meets with the hearty APP
nroval of the postmaster. though he
tbinks that the matter should have
been agitated when the building was
erected. He is willing, however, to do
what he can now to secure the i'm
provement.
So far as having the streets that sur
round the postoffice paved, Capt. Blum
saws he took the matter up with the
Treasury Department at Washington a
wear ago, and then found that the gov
eminent could not pay any part of the
cost, because there is no fund for such
work. and to secure one would neces-
state a special appropriation. The
plaza, he thinks, might be secured by
the same means; that is have special
appropriation for it.
To secure this Capt. Blum thinks the
best plan would be to have the trade
bodies take the matter UP and start
a petition for the amount needed, have
the Mayor and City Council assist in
the work. and also business men and
other residents of prominence. He
thinks that because the building is
used for holding sessions of the fed
eral courts that the officers of the
courts would assist in the effort to
secure the plaza, and believes that
Judge Emory Speer would readily lend
his assistance to that end.
The appropriation should be made
sufficient to cover the cost, not only of
securing the property that is needed
for the plaza, but to pay the cost of
the governments share in the charges
of paving the streets around the build
ing. The amount needed to secure the
property required for the plaza, and
TO put in condition would be covered,
Capt. Blum. thinks, by 100000. To
build the plaza would De not only 10
make a decided Improvement for the
postofTice, but would also enhance the
value of the property in the vicinity.
The appropriation would have to be
secured through the senators and con-
gressmen 1t is believed there are
many precedents for such a request
of the government, as it is understood
that only recently a much larger sum
than would be needed in Savannah
was given for park in Atlanta. Con-
sidering how desirable the suggested
improvement would be to the city gen.
orally, it is more than probable that
the matter will be taken up shortly,
and definite steps to secure it begun.
The Chamber of Commerce may take
the matter up.

pleased with the conditions existing
at Bethesda and that everything was
in the best order. AS usual there are
three classes, numbering a total of
1870 boys. The examinations showed
that the boys were making good pro-
gress and all the ground gone over had
been covered thoroughly.
After the regular work of eXamina-
tions and inspections had been COM

LUMBER DEALERS
OPTIMISTIC.

Think That Great Baltimore Fire
Helped to Sustain the Trade.
Local lumber dealers generally agree
that conditions in the trade show
decided improvement as compared with
the same time last year.
While there has been little, If any,
change in the price of lumber as COM
pared to last week, the inquiry has
shown a decided increase, which all
lumbermen agree is an encouraging
sign.
The movement has been about nor
NAL, and lumber dealers are inclined to
think that next month will show
number of vessels in port that have
been detained on account of the
frozen conditions in the North. A
prominent dealer said yesterday:
THE great fire that recently occur
red in Baltimore has In a measure
acted as a stimulus to the lumber
trade. 1 do not mean to say that it
has advanced the price of lumber, but
the demand, while slow, has prevent
ed a slump. In the nature of things
1t will take from three to four years
to rebuild the Monumental City, which
argues that the demand for lumber
will be small. Yet the fire is bound to
prove a blessing in disguise for the
lumber men.
THE eyes of all lumber men, es-
pecially in this section. are anxiously
turned toward Washington. where they
put up a stiff fight before the Inter
state Commerce Commission in regard
to a discrimination of freight rates
by the railroads. They confidently look
for a decision in their favor, and hope
eventually to reap the benefits from
such an award.

GIANT FIRE ENGINE
HAS ARRIVED.
Will De Given a Thorough Test ON
the louisville Road.

Will De Given a Thorough Test ON
the louisville Road.
The new double extra first size La
France engine, ordered by the city III
November, has been received, and is
now on exhibition at fire headquarters
at Indian and West Broad streets.
This engine was one of the demands
of the Southeastern Tariff Association,
and was insisted upon before that as
ISOLATION would consent to re-rate the
city on first-class basis.
The new engine is a handsome piece
of machinery, 1t is intended to be
hauled by three horses, and provisions
have been made for a fourth horse, in
case of necessity. 1t is guaranteed to
throw 1900 gallons of water per min
ute, and it looks equal to this require
nent. but should it fail to do so the
city is protected by a certified check,
which was attached to the bid of the
La France Company.
The largest engine in the department,
now stationed at fire headquarters, ap-
pears small as compared with the new
arrival. Mr.. Asa La France, the de-
livering agent, will reach the city to-
day, and the engine will be tested on

place on the Louisville road, near the
old Florida. Central and Peninsular
Railway bridge.
Water will be pumped from the wa
terworks conduit through four lines of
hose of 21a inches in diameter and aft
er the official test has been completed,
exhibitions will be given to show the
distance and volume of the throwing
capacity of the engine. Supt. Mcguire
and Engineers Ponder and Christian
will direct these tests. An examina-
ton of the new engine convinces every
one that it is hardly available for serv-
ice anywhere except in the paved sec
tions of the city.
Supt. Mcguire says that at times it
may be necessary to run this engine
into the sandy streets, but great care
will have to be taken not to get 1t too
far from the paved streets. 1t is said
that when charged, the engine will
weigh about II, 800 pounds. 1t will be
located at fire headquarters. The en-
CINE now at that station will go to No.
8, and the engine now at No. will be
placed in reserve. The engine at No.
will be equipped with a three-horse
hitch, which will make in all four out
of six engines to be hauled by three
horses
