That may have been built originally for Canfield.
Yeah, for his drunkenness. You came after the remodel didn’t you?
Yes.
So, you never did see that thing. It was beautiful. It was well done. It was right in that clapboard-type wall board that they used. He just held it and it just slid right up. There was an old bottle back in there. He just kept it there. We kept things hidden there that we didn’t want other people to find, a few of us that knew about it.
The one in House 19 is fun to show people.
Was it hidden?
Yes, but it’s right in the dining room.
The panel moves or something?
It is in a bureau and you trip a little lever under the first drawer and up pops the bottle.
Oh, really. I didn’t know about that.
Einar was kind of a sixties superintendent. Richard Sims was the strangest superintendent of all (19). There was nothing on his desk. He was such an unusual superintendent. Soft spoken. He’d come over from Oregon Caves.
