A poet wrote that "in dreams begin responsibilities." As I age, dreams merge with reality so that I don't always trust my memory; nonetheless, one of my vivid memories concerns that house that was south of the Baptist Church, and though on the same side as Earl Kelly's, I believe it belonged to the Repults who lived across the highway. In the early 40s, I was playing in our front yard and observed a lady lean across the end of the porch to say something to her grandchild when she fell off the porch with either a heart attack or a stroke.
Does anyone remember what family lived in that house and when the house was torn down?

THE HOUSE ON THE CORNER
The house you ask about did belong to John Repult. He was a cotten ginner for several yearsl he was also honey bee keeper.HE and one OF His sons both lost a arm in the gin saws.
