Huge General Auction to
Spark Mt. Angel Project
By BOSE WACHTEB
- 1 Mt. Angel In the summer
cf 1852 a group of citizens of
Mount Angel gathered to dis
cuss an opportunity that had
presented itself. A tract of land
in the heart of the community
was for sale. Here was a large
area immediately adjoining the
beautiful Gothic style church
for which Mount Angel is fam
ousa landmark in the whole
valley.
Having observed the pitiful
ly overcrowded conditions of
some of the "homes for the
aged" throughout the country,
suggestions came from all sides
to purchase this property and
build cottage-type retirement
homes a colony where old
sters could live in decency and
enjoy life in the serenity of
fered only by a small rural vil'
lage in a mild, invigorating cli
mate.
A commute was formed, a
small amount of money was do
sated, and the property was
purchased.
, No, sooner had the, commit
tee purchased the property
when they were confronted
with their, first tenant. Frank
Nightwine, bachelor, a veteran
of the Spadlsh-Amerlcan War
and World War I, came to the
committee and asked permis
sion to move a one-room house
on the property and live there
until cottages were completed.
This, of course, was a far
cry from the centrally-heated,
well planned units that every
one has in mind. But it pre
sented no problem to the com
mittee because, as one of them
tated, "Even if we can't give
him the kind of place we'll
have some day, if living there
will make him happy, that's
what we're doing this for."
House Moved
so name's -noma" was
moved in among the fruit trees
in the orchard.
Joseph Bartnick and Mr.
Kottre moved the house in;
Joseph Wagner and Joseph
Foltz squared up the building,
put in a new floor, lined up the
wans ana ceiling with sheet
rock. Ed Hammer and sons
came and put on a new roof.
Pete Nelssen donated his serv
ices to install new sink and
running water, and Norb
Butsch donated his labor in in
stalling electric wiring. In a
few days Frank moved in, hap
py to have a place where he
could do as he liked in such a
tranquil setting.
This only served to Intensify
the desire of the community to
move ahead with their project
it indicated now much such
homes were needed and how
much the location would be
appreciated.
A Portland architect, L. L.
Dugan, donated a free plan for
the project Then, as in every
community project, the ques
tion of raising funds became
pressing.
Roland Gottsacker suggested
an auction. He reasoned that
almost everyone has something
of considerable value that he
could sell at auction and do
nate all or a percentage of the
proceeds to such a worthy
cause.
One member of the group
happens to have a brother who
is one of the leading auction
eers in the midwest, Col. Paul
' F. Bockelman, Jr., of Sioux
City, Iowa. When he was in
formed of the proposed sale he
not only agreed to donate his
services but promised to spend
two weeks before the sale help
ing with final arrangements.
The leading auctioneers of
the valley were contacted. Each
one contacted, on hearing the
nature of the sale, agreed to
donate his services and help in
every way possible. As Lane
Sudtell of Salem put it: "You
can count on me, my brother
Orrin ' of Beaverton, and my
father, Ben. And we'll bring
our wives to help clerk the
sale. What' more, we think
you'll find that every auction
eer in the area will be happy to
donate his services on a pro
ject like this."
Quarters Found
Thrilled with the prospect
of so much help and direction,
the group then sought to find
a suitable place for such a
large auction. This, too, was
provided through the generos
ity of the Mount Angel Flax
Growers' association. Huge
sheds with hundreds of thou
sands of square feet under root,
many acres of land for parking
and an adjoining livestock
yard were made available to
care for livestock consign-
ments. The sale could now be
held, rain or shine.
May 30, Decoration Day,
19S3, was selected as the time
for the auction. This seemed
fitting because most people
have the day off and will be
free to participate in a pro
ject to provide decent homes
for aged persons who desper
ately need decent living quar
ters and a little privacy and
care.
