With real estate prices the way
they are today, it is interesting to
drop back few years and get real
picture of the difference IA years
can make.
Back in October 1889, Harold
Hoffman built a two-story frame
dwelling, with a brick-cased front,
at 218 Mealey Parkway; R. E. Baker
built a frame and brick veneered
single dwelling with garage on lot
10, Pennsylvania Avenue; and Mich
ael Furry changed one-story frame
building at 80 Madison Avenue to
two stories, remodeling the first floor
for business and the second floor
for apartments.
The combined valuation of the
three properties was given by the
building inspector at $500, where
as today, the valuation of just Mr..
Hoffman's property, would be sew
eral thousand dollars more than
that.

Going back another hundred
years, we find that on Saturday,

mile and to give an idea of how long
it took to make the run, the Express
Mail left Columbus, Ohio at $50 p.
m. on Saturday evening and reached
Hagerstown at 9:25 a. m. on Mon
day morning. This was an elapsed
