Addison Gandy House

Climbing a fence 
With a gun
Can give you a hole
 And not much fun.



   This house was built in 1892 by Y.B. and Martha Davis Addison. The fire place and the doors were done by a German traveler who went by Mr. Patch, though.
   Well, its said that Bo Addison went hunting with a young friend one day. When he went to jump over a fence he put his gun on the barbed wire fence. Once he was over the fence he reached for his gun. Well the trigger was stuck on a barb and he ended up shooting him self in the gut. He survived and story says he lived to be 84 years old.
   Are next stop is really big and hairy(no, it is not Daisy). We're going to the Buffalo Monument.
