SANDUSKY A Lady Of Magnificent Grandeurv CAROLYN Cons, '65 , AM going to pass on to you in this article something which I en- joyed very much. It is a story, a history of facts embellished by my own imagination. I shall try to be exact, but forgive my deviations. Take a seat and make yourself com- fortable. I suppose the best way to begin is to tell my own impressions. Though the subject of this tale is the San- dusky house, I shall treat her as a person, for she is a beautifully an- cient woman, a lady of magnificent grandeur. of grace, of wit, and of charm. She is vain, but her vanity becomes her. She is delicate yet stolid, for she has stood upon her hill for one hundred and fifty-six years. Now probably I have confused vou, so I shall tell you some facts. The Sandusky house is located in the Fort I-Iill section of Lynchburg. Doubtless you have seen it. There is a road perpendicular to the Timber- lake Road, opposite the Quaker Me- morial Church. Down this small road, named Sandusky for the house, is Sandusky itself. If one stood on the highway-once the Salem turn- pike-and drew a bow, and if an ar- row would fly that far, the arrow would strike precisely in the middle panel of the front door, so straight is the road to Sandusky. This road was laid out in I 808 by Samuel John- THE CRYTIC Art work by Charlano Holbrook, 'C' son when he built Sandusky. I-Ie must have worked hard, for the house was completed in two years. And it is a marvel of architectural science. All materials were made on the plantation by slave labor. There are scarcely any nails in the entire framework. There are wooden pegs, yes, but very few. The floor' sup- ports are notched in the wood of the foundation, which rests on brick sup- ports. I would like to talk more about this aspect of the house, but I am not very good at that sort 'of thing and you must see it for yourself-the earthy wholeness, the thickness of the walls, the enduring ruggedness. But, do-not let me deceive you, the house is not ungainly. The ceilings are high, which lends it grace, and the many windows tall, allowing much light. All of which brings me, in my dis- course, to the front entrance. In front of the house there is a circular drive ringed on each side by box- woods. The ones of the inner circle are small and full. those of the outer are tremendous. The boxwoods far- thest from the house are smaller, my size approximately, as remember. Then the bushes nearest the house, flanking the main door, are 22 feet in height. They reminded me of wo- men in full dresses, the taller, slim- mer ones in back, their escorts. The porch is not ilarge, nothing outland- 27
