Dear fellow listers. The was a very large factory in Hopedale Mass. It was called Draper Corporation. The factory made cast iron. Hopedale and all the surrounding towns worked in there. Some people coming from RI and NH. Hopedale is a small town. But there are some large eststes here.There is a beautiful estate that went up for sale about a month ago. I went on line to see if it was sold yet and it wasn't BUT the new paperwork said this estate is now zoned to be a bed and breakfast because it has 14 bedrooms. If you want to look at it you can go to 105Adin.com It is a beautiful site. Maureen _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Dear Fellow Listers: I feel quite inconsequential, now that I've completed the virtual tour of the mansion which is depicted at: http://www.105adin.com For some unexplained reason in viewing the especially long dining room table, I imagine myself being 14 or 15 years of age while standing at one end of this massive piece of furniture, while addressing a father-image at the far end of the table while pleading: "But Father, I need a one dollar increase in my allowance!" Then I try to imagine his reply.

Bob, When did you live in that mansion in Hopedale? In this email you said you remember sitting at that long table in the dining room and asking your dad for a raise in your allowance when you were 14 or 15. Which years did you live in there?
