The old home, located about three miles above the city on Willow creek ana variously known as the Full er place, the Hager place and the Cleveland place, and now own ed by Mr. and Mrs. Howard Cleve land is being entirely remodeled into a modern residence. The old house, built in 1887 by James Fuller, has had the top story removed and considerable reconditioning to the lower floor preparatory to receiving a thor ough modernizing. Construction of the old home was started by Fuller who died before the house was completed and never lived in it. His wife sold the house to J. M. Hager, father of J. O. Hager, and Mrs. A. D. McMurdo in 1889. Mrs. Mc Murdo and another younger sis ter were born there. The house contained 10 rooms. including 5 bedrooms upstairs and one down, a liviner room. dining room, kitchen, pantry and an ottice. It had a full basement and two large verandas. Lumber for its construction was hauled in from The Dalles and all inside finish material was cedar. J. O. Hager told the Gazette Times that one of the best painters in this area finished the inside of the house even to painting wood grain and knots on the cedar doors. The property on which the house stands was originally part of one of the first homesteads in this area taken up by two men by the names of Howard and French. In about 1917 the proper ty was divided, the lower going to Frank Wilkinson, and the house and upper property being sold to- Wendell H. Cleveland. The present owner, Howard Cleveland is a grandson of the former owner. The property has some of the oldest recorded water rights on Willow creek. Although the house is 64 years old much of it was in good con dition, though some repairs were required to the foundation be fore new work could start. Mr. and Mrs. O. G.
