    This is probably the best picture showing some of the wood on the dock waiting to be put away.

    It was stated that Hunter Arms stock wood in the good years was estimated at $250,000. The had some of the finest walnut from all over the world.

    It was often stated that there were only 4 floors but you can see here there are clearly 5, two of which were added on. Also one of the workers stated that from the water tower on top to the ground was 24" from plumb
