Local store to make transition as part of retail deal
Garnett Orscheln
will make change,
other Kansas stores go
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
BRENTWOOD,
Tenn.
Garnetts Orschelns farm supply store is now officially a
Tractor Supply location, after a
protracted deal was culminated
late last month that saw a $320
million acquisition of some,
but not all Kansas Orscheln
locations by the Tennessee
retailer.
The deal was hung up by
Federal Trade Commission
regulators, who wanted assurances the 81-store transference
from Orscheln to TS would
not give the latter an unfair
competitive advantage in the
retail farm supply market.
The Garnett store and others
involved in the deal are expected to get a facelift to the TS
brand over the course of the
next 15 months.
Tractor Supply will divest
the remaining 85 stores in the
Orscheln family to two buyers approved by the FTC. The
net purchase price of the 81
stores acquired and retained
is approximately $238 million
before working capital adjust-
ments. The acquisition is anticipated to generate an estimated
future tax benefit of approximately $20 million, according
to company and FTC documents.
As part of the anti-trust
provisions reached with the
FTC, Tractor Supply will
divest 85 locations to two
buyers, Bomgaars Supply,
Inc. (73 stores) and Buchheit
Enterprises, Inc. (12 stores),
shortly after closing the transaction. Proceeds of the store
divestitures will be approximately $72 million. In addition,
Tractor Supply has agreed to
sell the Orscheln Farm and
Home corporate
headquarters and
distribution center
in Moberly, Mo.,
to Bomgaars for
approximately $10
million within 15
months after the
closing of the transaction.
Stores retained by TS in the
deal include Garnett as well
as Colby, Ellsworth, Eureka,
Goodland,
Independence,
Junction City, Marysville,
Medicine Lodge, Ottawa,
Phillipsburg, Sabetha, Smith
Center and Wellington; those
forced to sell in the divestiture
include Atchison, Basehor,
Condordia, Dodge City, El
Dorado, Garden City, Gardner,
Goddard, Great Bend, Hays,
Hutchinson, Iola, Lawrence,
Louisburg,
Manhattan,
McPherson, Newton, Parsons,
Pratt, Salina and Topeka.
TS Chief Executive Officer
Hal Lawton said the transition
would allow TS to expand offerings and services to former
Orscheln customers.
We
are
committed
to providing
customers
in the region
with an elevated product
assortment, a
meaningful loyalty offering,
an enhanced digital shopping
experience and so much more
that Tractor Supply is able to
offer, he said. Importantly,
Tractor Supply is on track to
achieve several monumental
milestones in the growth of our
company including annual revenues in excess of $14 billion, a

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City and county officials may expand the
parameters of a Garnett tax
rebate program designed to
give an incentive to local
developers to improve the
value of their homes and
business buildings and building lots, after discussions at
the recent meeting of Garnett
and
Anderson
County
Commissioners.
The
Neighborhood
Revitalization Program was
initiated in Garnett in the
early 1990s by the Garnett
Area Chamber of Commerce
and provides for a rebate of 95
percent of increased property
taxes over $5,000 for a period of years when a property
is either newly constructed
or rehabilitated and sees a
resulting increased value
and tax liability. The City of
Greeley adopted the program
as well in 2004. The structure
requires participation by the
host city as well as the county
and school districts all local
tax entities to be in agreement for full benefit.
Garnett City Commissioner
Jason Sheahan said he
expected proposals to center
on increasing the amount of
rebate and possibly extending
the period of time those benefits are in effect. Anderson
County Development Agency
Director Julie Turnipseed
said last week whatever
changes are made will require
new authorizing documents
to be signed by the city, county and school district to for-
SEE DEAL ON PAGE 2
mally affect any changes.
Presently the plan offers
a 95 percent rebate of additional taxes on an improved
property as long as it has a
minimum increase of $5,000
in appraised value directly
resulting from those improvements. The property must
have sufficient written documentation of expenditures for
those improvements, must be
in compliance with current
city building codes and cant
owe any back taxes or special
assessments.
Taxes are paid on the
improvements, then refunded by the taxing entities.
Improvements include new
construction, additions and
major rehab work on existing
structures and dont included swimming pools, parking
lots, landscaping or single

Without county freebie, city clean
up week costs Garnett nearly $1,900
GARNETT City staff put
some numbers to the trash
hauled during the recent
Garnett Clean-Up Week, adding some context to an issue
thats become a sticking
point between city and county elected officials in recent
years as free dump week for
county customers went by the
wayside.
City manager Travis
Wilson passed the information along in a weekly memo
to city commissioners last
week, noting the recent clean
up week which allowed city
residents to get rid of extra
trash and some larger and
unconventional refuse at no
charge yielded more than
30,000 pounds of construction
and demolition waste and
66,000 pounds of additional
trash. The city hasnt offered
a free dump week since 2019.
The city pays to dump its
trash at the Anderson County
Landfill and paid nearly
$1,900 for the special clean up
event.
Anderson County in past
years had offered a free
dump week for its customers, including rural residents
and the City of Garnett. The
city took advantage of the
drop in costs to offer free pick
up of extra trash for city residents as an incentive to clean
up and enhance the aesthetics
of their properties. Anderson
County however cancelled
the free offering in 2020, when
a major gas pipeline project
resulted in a big increase in
water and dirt slurry from
digging operations which had
to be handled at the landfill,
and landfill personnel said
they were too busy to commit
labor to the free dump week
as well.
The pipeline project
ended last year after garnering Anderson County some
$200,000 in additional revenues.
Irritation over the halting of the free dump week
brought city commissioners
to investigate a number of
other options for trash disposal, but alternatives like starting the citys own landfill or
hauling trash to other counties even burning trash to
produce electrictity proved
too costly.
Spending more in Kansas schools doesnt make test scores rise, analysis shows
Spending increases for
state education in recent
years not showing in scores
BY DAVID HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Public school spending and
student achievement in Kansas resemble an escalator; one side (spending)
goes up, and the other (achievement)
goes down.
Thats the analysis of a study from
the Kansas Policy Institute, a conservative think tank which is the parent
company of the Sentinel.
As a result, the Sunflower State has
one of the lowest productivity rankings a measure of test scores per
dollar spent per pupil in the nation.
In other words, the data shows
Kansans are seeing relatively low
bang for their education buck.
A review of 2020 U.S. Census data
shows the state had the 11th-highest
spending per pupil at $17,502, over 8%
above the national average of $16,171,
according to the most recent spending
statistics available from 2020. Its state
aid ranks #3 in the United States at
$11,248 per pupil. Both numbers for
Kansas and all other states are adjusted for cost-of-living differences using
the Missouri Economic
Research and Information
Center because a dollar
spent in Kansas buys a lot
more than in most states.
Kansas was #13 in
per-student spending and
#6 in state aid based on
2019 spending data from
U.S. Census.
However, the large
expenditure increase over
the last few years has not
translated to improved test
scores, as school districts

Kansans paid $72 per NAEP

MACKLIN
TRABUC
MAY 13, 1943 NOVEMBER 16, 2022
Raleigh K. Rusty Macklin,
age 79, of Garnett, Kansas
passed away on November 16,
2022 at his home.
Rusty was born on May 13,
1943 in Greeley, KS. He was
the second
of two sons
born to Ralph
Macklin and
Grace (Fox)
Macklin.
Rusty grew
up
on
a
farm
east
of Greeley,
Macklin
graduating
from Greeley
High School with the class of
1961. Rustys love of cars, specifically Ford vehicles, began
at a young age. He remarked
that he had seven different
cars by the time he graduated
from high school. Following
high school Rusty worked at
various jobs before going to
work at HUMCO in Garnett as
a welder/fabricator. On June
15, 1968 he was united in marriage to Karen Sue Marmon in
Garnett. Their union was blessed with four children, Amy,
Kim, Flint and Jill. Rusty and
Karen began their life together
on a dairy farm near Greeley,
where he also helped his dad
on his farm. They later moved
to Colony, Kansas where Rusty
farmed, before they eventually
moved to their home on the
Bush City road. Karen passed
away on May 28, 1995. In 2002
Rusty moved from their property on the Bush City road to the
house he built on Highway 169
south of Garnett. Just like the
home on Bush City road, the
new house had space to accommodate all of Rustys ongoing
projects. Rustys talents were
most often expressed in steel,
but he could make, fix, create or build almost anything.
After retiring in 2008 after 31
years of combined service for
HUMCO and Taylor Forge
he took on his own business,
Rustys Welding and Machine.
His work was sought after for
the one off or difficult items.
Everything Rusty turned out
had that Rusty touch. In his
free time, Rusty enjoyed fishing, hunting, and trapping, but
vehicles and things related to
building and fixing usually
made their way to top priority.
Over the years Rusty enjoyed
restoring several vehicles, his
mud truck, 1956 Ford, 1963
Ford Fairlane, and 1973 Mach
1 were some of his favorites.
The family enjoyed countless
hours at car shows and mud
runs. Rusty embraced the idea
that cars were made to be driven and he loved to drag race
if given the opportunity. He
enjoyed raising tomatoes and
sharing them with family and
friends. Rusty enjoyed several years of marriage to Lois
Roberts until her passing on
November 20, 2020.
He was preceded in death by
his parents, Ralph and Grace
Macklin; wife, Karen; wife,
Lois; son, Flint on September
9, 2017.
Rusty is survived by
his three daughters, Amy
Rowlands of Garnett; Kim
Wittman and husband, Rod of
Garnett, and Jill Foltz and husband, Pete of Waverly, Kansas;
nine grandchildren; five great
grandchildren; one brother,
Jay Macklin and wife, Linda of
Garnett; and Lois son, Brian
Colburn; and numerous additional family and friends.
Funeral services for Rusty
will be held at 2:00 PM,
Wednesday, November 23, 2022,
at Feuerborn Family Funeral
Service – Garnett. Burial
will follow in the Garnett
Cemetery. Rustys family will
greet friends from 6:00 PM to
8:00 PM on Tuesday, November
22, 2022 at Feuerborn Family
Funeral Service – Garnett.

used, amounted to loss of county tax revenues. That move
prompted Garnett commissioners to consider outlining an

OPINION
Hobo Camp puts Lawrence on A List
Lawrences new tourism development project
a hobo jungle on the north bank of the Kaw
River just west of the Mass/Vermont Street
bridges is drawing lots of statewide attention
and is finally rounding out the citys decadeslong quest for stature among the nations most
liberal enclaves.
But despite moving the city toward its long
sought aspiration to become a Leftist municipal ascendancy, this new initiative to scum up
the town and the river bank is getting mixed
reviews from some area residents and businesses who arent near as much on board with turning the town into Portland, Ore., as city leaders
are.
Yes, it seems LFKs proud tradition of social
liberalism has finally brought the city to bridge
that chasm between being just another progressive university town full of pizza shops,
pink hair and lip piercings to collapsing utterly
into a full-on sludge pot of rotting dignity the
kind illustrated so succinctly these days by fermenting cesspools like Seattle, Portland or San
Francisco. And as that rapidly metastasizing
mass of tents, cardboard boxes and tarp shelters
grows along the bank of the Kansas River and
further chokes out the business community of
North Lawrence, soon to spread down to the
posh eateries and overpriced bars and shops
of Massachussetts Street, the Blue Dot liberals
of Lawrence will come to the realization that
theyve finally achieved the social conscience
they always wanted.
It wasnt exactly the dream Rick Renfro had
in mind. The owner of Johnnys Tavern the
original location north of the River with the
dubious honor of being next-door neighbors
with the Kaw Jungle shut his business down
in protest for part of the week earlier this month
in an effort to get city officials who created the
mess to do something about it. He told city council members at a meeting hed recorded some
80 confrontations between hobos and his staff
or his customers. Some of those times he called
the cops. At a recent meeting some hobos and
other Blue Dots castigated him because he had
told several he didnt want the homeless in his
restaurant, even if they were paying customers.
How dare he? Doesnt every customer want
to hang out at a bar and enjoy a burger and beer
next to a guy who smells like feces and campfire
smoke? Who doesnt want to watch the Chiefs
game with someone who swears the players are
all robots, Ulysses S. Grant is still alive, and who
hasnt brushed his teeth since Labor Day?
But theres an awakening catharsis in call-

ing a spade a spade the way Renfro has done.
Its being shared by other Lawrence residents
and business people who, while keeping silent
in order to preserve their places among the
Lawrence enlightened, know full well the blight
that city leaders have brought upon the residents and businesses by encouraging the tent
encampment.
The flaw in the thinking was of course
responding to an increase in homeless population by making that homeless population
more comfortable. Two years ago Lawrence
spent better than $300,000 in Covid funds to
create a temporary homeless camp complete
with heated tent shelters, restroom, shower and
laundry facilities in Woody Park near Lawrence
Memorial Hospital. That turned out to be problematic with hospital devotees and neighborhood residents, so the city re-wrote its ordinance
against camping in public areas to create the
Kaw River Hobo Camp at the expense of businesses in North Lawrence. Unsurprisingly, the
camp is growing and so are incidents of crime,
harassment and the expected blight on the performance of nearby businesses.
Make no mistake. This is a problem created
by Lawrence elected leaders because they lacked
the backbone to handle the problem created by
the homeless. The community offers several
avenues to put homeless people at least those
who hope to eventually find permanent housing
into a pipeline of support directed at finding
jobs and residences. Those resources are easily
overwhelmed, and the problems made worse
by do-gooder public policy that encourages it
instead of discouraging it.
Its okay to say we dont want homeless people
in our communities because theyre a blight. Its
okay to say the homeless themselves are priSEE HICKS ON PAGE 7

Boy stays in our locker room, and Im kicked out of school
As a girl, I was taught to respect the privacy
of my body, and to speak up if I felt unsafe or if
something made me feel uncomfortable. Now
Im 14 and shocked to learn not all adults take
you seriously when you say you dont feel safe
or comfortable. In fact, they may even punish
you for speaking out.
Thats what happened to me when I said I
didnt think a teenage male should be allowed
in the girls locker room where my teammates
and I undress and change. Im a private person
when it comes to my body, even in the safety
and comfort of home. But at school, apparently
theres no problem with a male student freely
watching us girls change our clothes.
It was a conversation I had with some peers
in French class that landed me in trouble with
the officials at Randolph Union High School
in Vermont. Someone overheard me telling
my friends that a dude doesnt belong in the
girls locker room, and they reported me to the
co-principals, even though the male student
didnt hear me and wasnt in the class.
The controversy didnt start in French class,
though; it started when the school allowed a
male who identifies as a girl to compete on our
girls volleyball team. When the male student
entered our locker room, we were changing.
Some of us didnt have a shirt on; others of us
were only in our underwear. Naturally, some

of us were uncomfortable and asked the student to leave, but we were ignored.
I was upset after the incident and called my
mom to tell her about it. She and several other
parents called the school administrators to
express concerns about the male student being
in the girls locker room. Not only did school
officials make no attempt to provide us with
any support or a workable solution, they made
me the bad guy for saying that a teenage male
shouldnt be allowed to watch us girls undress.
Shouldnt every girl be taught to speak out
to protect herself from situations where she
hasnt given consent and be listened to by
those in a position to help? If something feels
off, trust your gut? Not at my high school. If
you dont comply with the schools preferred
gender identity policy, youre the bad guy.
For expressing true, commonsense, biological
facts boys and girls are different and must
respect each others bodily privacy I was
punished.
The school began an investigation into the
comments I made in class and banned our
entire girls volleyball team from using the
girls locker room. The co-principals notified
me that I was found guilty of harassment and
bullying of a student on the basis of the targeted students gender identity. As punishment, school officials told me I must take part
in a restorative justice circle with the equity
coordinator, submit a reflective essay, and
serve out-of-school suspension.
So, with the legal assistance of Alliance
Defending Freedom, I sued the co-principals
and Orange Southwest School District officials. On the same day that we filed suit,
the superintendent rescinded the disciplinary
actions against me.
But I wasnt the only one to experience
retaliation for stating a simple truth and wanting to be safe. My dad, Travis, was suspended

Dont count Trump out to lead GOP astray
Donald Trump is in his weakest political
state since 2015 or early 2016.
During his presidency, when he was at the
center of countless intense controversies, he
didnt blink once. He never showed fear or
desperation. Both are clearly at work now in
his gratuitous attacks on Govs. Ron DeSantis
of Florida and Glenn Youngkin of Virginia,
neither of whom has done anything to him,
besides presenting a viable alternative to his
continued dominance of the GOP.
Any Trump political obituaries are premature, though, until a verdict has been reached
by the force that has buoyed him and lent him
his overwhelming power in the GOP politics
— Republican voters.
The idea that the party decides — that a
partys elites guide voters to their preferred
presidential candidate — got blown to smithereens in 2016. Trump had almost no institutional support and won anyway.
Since then, the party has neutered itself
and, in many states, been affirmatively taken
over by pro-Trump forces.
After the experience of the Access
Hollywood tape and January 6, Republican
officials have internalized the lesson that getting too far out in front of voters in expressing
anti-Trump sentiment — indeed getting an
inch in front of them — is potentially fatal.
Politics is always a realm of artifice and
whispered conversations, but the Trump era
has taken it to another level in the GOP.
Many of the elected officials who are Trumps
biggest public boosters have a dim view of
him in private. People serving at the highest
levels of his administration — not deep state
operatives, but his own political appointees
— would make clear their discomfort with him
in private. Even the most pro-Trump voices in
the media often dont share their true feelings
about him.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
If the window has opened a crack to Trump
criticism among Republican officialdom, its
still quite muted. Everyone considers it much
safer to train their public fire on presumptive
speaker Kevin McCarthy or Majority Leader
Mitch McConnell.
Its important to remember, by the way,
that some of the worst candidate choices in
the midterms were freely made by GOP primary electorates under the influence of the
former president. Theres been a lot of criticism of Democrats spending on weak MAGA
candidates in the primaries. But these candidates never would have gotten nominated
in the first place if Republican voters hadnt
happily supported them, despite their flaws
and despite Democrats desperately wanting to
run against them.
One hopes that the lesson has finally been
learned that Trump — no matter how much
Republicans admire his combativeness, appreciate his entertainment value, and detest his
enemies — is not a sound electoral guide, to put
it mildly.
Trump didnt win a majority in either of his
presidential elections, even the one he won;
he was never anywhere close to 50% in the
RealClearPolitics polling averages in either of
his races; and his average job approval rating
during his presidency never approached 50%,
either.
Trump won in 2016 courtesy of Hillary
Clinton, the Electoral College, and a dollop of
luck. At the end of the day, hes a plurality,
not a majority, candidate. And hes drawn to
other plurality candidates, who, lacking the
advantage of running in races with an electoral college or against Hillary Clinton, tend
to lose. Winning 46.1% worked for Trump in
2016, but its a formula for failure for everyone
else.
There are early signs that voters have
taken on board the contrast between Trump,
who was embarrassed on election night and
has been attacking other Republicans in crude
terms, and Ron DeSantis, who won a crushing
reelection victory and hasnt felt it necessary
to throw out wild charges or insult other party
leaders to try to deflect blame from himself.
The polls are very early but telling. A
YouGov poll had DeSantis up over Trump
nationally in a hypothetical 2024 matchup,
42-35. A new 2024 poll in Texas has DeSantis
up by a similar 43-32. And a WPA Intelligence
poll has DeSantis beating Trump in Iowa,
New Hampshire, Florida and Georgia.
There will have to be much more of that
to signal that a fundamental, enduring shift
has taken place and coax party leaders out of
their long defensive crouch. The party wont
decide to turn against Trump until voters give
it clear, unmistakable permission.

we cant do that. Get your Bible out and read it
again. Understand, yes Jesus is coming back but

that is to have Godly government.
Very well said Mr. David Hicks. Theres
Republicans who think if their foot itches theyll
feel better if they shoot themselves in it. Four
more years of Laura Kelly. Just plain dumb.
Thank you.
Seriously, this is ad rich as it gets. The Left now
attempting to censor pastors and their congregations. Banning politics from being discussed in
our churches and even our homes. Remember,
we know the Left has captured the market when
it comes to bugging places. These extreme policies that the Left embraces smack of Marxist
Socialist ideologies, one whose final goal is the
destruction of the church. Polices that harm and
even kill individuals of every race and creed.
The separation of church and state is being
forced aside as these evil policies are thrust
upon us. Pastors, thank you and please dont be
remiss in helping us navigate these stumbling
blocks to our faith.
Elon Musk has taken control of Twitter, and a
company of 7,500 employees is now cut to about
450. While some people are afraid the company
will fail because of the drastic cuts, others are
more afraid it will thrive and send a powerful
message to other companies who will start to
look at how much dead weight is in their midst
who do nothing but send emails and attend
meetings all day long.

In a move to entice more
businesses to the industrial park, city commissioners
dropped the asking price on
the lots by about $11,000 each,
but left the possibility open to
negotiate even further if favorable conditions prevail. The
move comes after interest in
one of the lots yielded discussion about reducing the asking
price for the lot. City Manager
Joyce Martin asked if the city
could advertise not only the
new price but also a statement
that prices are negotiable
depending on the number of
jobs created, a projected sales
tax and utility revenues.
Garnett City taxpayers can
expect to see new street marking paths soon. The $15,000
expense will replace street
name signs, stop signs and
yield signs. The replacement
of street signs, stop signs and
yield signs is part of a federal
mandate that requires uniformity for traffic control devices
across the country. Current
signs will need to be examined
for potential replacement, and
tested for reflectivity. City
Manager Martin said a schedule to replace the signs in each
of the citys four wards will
take three years between 20132016. The city has a total of 297
street signs, 100 stop signs and
27 yield signs.

he was suspended from his

Like a phoenix from the
ashes, the death of the $5.2
million jail project may have
failed, but new hope is rising
from the County Commission.
Last week county commissioners opted to pursue the prospect
for building a new Anderson
County Jail by other means.
Sheriff Darin Dallying said
now that the county was on
the record about the current
jails deficiencies and liabilities for injury to any occupant
of the building. Citing revenue sources by renting out the
extra bed spaces available to
other counties, Sheriff Dalsing
indicated that after operating
expenses were taken out the
rental income could be used
to help pay off the jail quickly. The new jail would house
60 beds netting a revenue of
between $400,000 and $600,000.

soon be a problem of the past.

Jesus recruited deciples via Come, follow me…
The epistles are replete
with illustrations of how Jesus
turned rough, uneducated men
into disciples.
In Mark 1:17-18, we see Jesus
call Simon, Andrew, James
and John. Come follow me,
Jesus said, and I will make
you fishers of men.
John the Baptist, whose
sole expressed purpose was to
prepare the way for Jesus, no
doubt influenced these men as
they would have been aware of
Johns ministry at the Jordan
River.
We are told the whole
Judean countryside and all
the people of Jerusalem went
out to John. Did these men
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
have a complete understanding of what Come follow me
meant? I doubt they did. This
was the initial phase of these
men becoming disciples.
In John 14:1-3 we read of an
event that occurred close to the
end of Jesus ministry. Jesus
says to his apostles, Dont let
your hearts be troubled. Trust
in God, trust also in me. In
my Fathers house are many
rooms, if it were not so, I would
have told you. And if I go and
prepare a place for you, I will
come back and take you to be
with me that you may also be
where I am.
The time that elapsed
between these two events
represents the training period for these men. Jesus does
not reveal what the outcome
will be for these men when he
issues the Come follow me
statement but begins to reveal
the impending kingdom in this
statement. The success or failure of Gods kingdom rested
with these men.
If they had not accepted the
call of Jesus to Come follow
me there would be no prepared place for the disciples
or us. Jesus left a very clear
footprint for us to follow. He
drew people to himself, he won
their confidence and inspired
their faith, he opened to them
the way of salvation and called
them to a decision. Jesus
appealed to the one need most
people didnt realize they had.
The need for a Savior.
How many people are out
there waiting for you to introduce them to Jesus? What we
do with the light of knowledge
we have will be part of our own
judgment.
Still great. Still cheap.

CENTERVILLE The Centerville Community Church celebrated a milestone Sunday,
passing its 125th anniversary
in the community.
The theme for the celebration was The Tree of Life.
Members created a wallhanging in which their handprints
formed a tree, with all members signing the back of the
back of the piece. Members
also planned to shoot a group
photo in front of the structure.
Members also buried a time
capsule, and added the congregation photo to the other items
inside the capsule.
A celebratory dinner followed the events.
The church had its roots in
the Methodist Church effort
to buy a lot in 1892, shortly
after the town was founded in
1889. The building committee
bought a lot for the parsonage
for $10, and the first parsonage
purchased from John McGee
and moved to the new site.
Three more lots were purchased in 1897 for the construction of a church for $30 with
work on the structure beginning that year as well.
Its unclear when the affiliation with the Methodist organization ended. The historic
church has been remodeled
a number of times over the
decades as well.
