The builders of fifty odd years ago

The builders Of fifty odd years ago
certainly did a good job of it, according
to A. Il. Moffitt who bought and re.
moved the old Liberty street Evongel,
ical church. As he could not find n
convenient place to place the church,
he just removed it in sections and
placed it in his back yard. But the
tearing to pieces was something of
job, as he found the old church, which
was built 81 years ago, was made of
larger sized timbers tllan used in bull
ing construction nowadays. The smallest
piece Of lumber was two by six, most
of them running two by eight and two
by ten inches. The rafters were all
two by six inches, and full size. He
also found that the large ten penny
cut nails were almost exclusively used,
and that the carpcntUrs of fifty years
ago used about three times as many
nails as modern builder would have
used.

other conditions are much better
