Salisbury Star 12/12/1897: "C.T. Hay's new business block is now being
erected. It will include one of the biggest buildings in town. The first
floor will house a furniture store. Allison Johnson of Uniontown has rented
it for ten years. On the second floor there will be an Opera House, and in
the basement, pool and billiard tables will be run in connection with Hay's
Hotel. There is little doubt of Salisbury being on the eve of the greatest
boom it ever had."

Roaming the streets of Salisbury!

Photo taken behind the Dan Livengood home,
now the home of Clyde and Mary Eliza Deal. The
field beside that house was used for Carnivals in the 1920 and 1930's.
The Carnivals were later were moved to the field where the High School now stands.
In this Maypole dance, the girls skip in and out of the boys, then the
                    boys in and out of the girls, gradually winding the ribbons around and down the
pole in an intricate and ever more tightly plaited pattern.
