At a meeting on Jan. 25, the
Board of Directors ofthe Flannagan-
Murrell House, Inc. voted to change
the name of the organization to the
Campbell-Flannagan-Murrell
House, Inc. This change came as a
result of further research into the
background of the building. It ap-
pears that the house was originally
built by Edgar Campbell and was
then sold to his daughter and son-
in-law Mr. and Mrs. John W. Flan-
nagan. The group felt that the
name should be changed to include
the original builder.
The next meeting will be held on
Feb. 22, at 5:00 at the offices of
Ziegler and Gunnoe, 110 James
Street, Hinton. Everyone who is
interested is invited to attend. If
