75 West 100 South |
KATHY:A question and a
comment on today’s posting of the old feed stable . If the building in the hazy
background is Wasatch Academy where is the Brandon home>? It was a big adobe
house that should be obscuring Wasatch Academy and I would guess as old as the
stable.
And my comment: When the
National Guard was recreated following WW1 about 1926/27 they drilled in the
dance hall just east of the stable. Their heavy equipment that included their
howitzers and tractors before trucks was “stabled” in the stable. The term is
not inappropriate. In my day the last hour of the day when we cleaned our
trucks and howitzers was called “motor stables”. The Armory at NE corner
Main and State built about 34/35. lee
