will compare we'll with many of the
rich suburban homes Of our large
cities. 1t was our privilege recent
ly to be shown through this man
sion by the courtesy OF the owner
and builder, Madison Csmer. He Is
the husband Of Cora, daughter Of
the late Nathaniel Hall. This ele-
CANT house is built on the site of the
old home and birthplace Of Hall,
along the main road from Oak
Grove to Lytlesburg. Mr. Osmer
not only possesses an artistic eye,
but he is real architect. He works
from the inside out, that is, he
thinks a thing through, draughts it
on paper, and then constructs it
with his own hands. This structure
built of rough stone and concrete,
is two stories high, with basement
under the entire lower part. The
blue lime rock and sand stone was
gathered from off the adjoining
fields. There are so many interest
ing features that enter into the
construction, that space forbids Us
going into details. One sample fca-
ture however is that a large fat
stone which formerly lay at the
front of the old house, and served
as a door step, is incorporated IN
this new structure and occupies the
most conspicuous place. This stone,
irregularly shaped, has about 25
square feet of surface and when
the house is completed it will have
the appearance of being hung in its
position and supported by two huge
rings Mr. Osmer has had much
experience, having been engaged or
many of the important buildings i'll
Columbus and Cincinnati, and the
building of this house seems only
like a bird house to him. It is our
hope that nothing will interfere
with this man to hinder the COM
pletion of this home as it will not
only be a memorial to the Hail fam
lily, but to the builder himself.
