Scope and content
The G. W. Littooy family continued their daily activities, living in their house for 5 days while it was being moved down the street by house movers from 14th and Cushman to 911 So. K Street. George and Mabel Littooy loved their two story, ten room house, but wanted to be closer to the business district; so they decided to move the home to an empty lot that they owned on 9th and K. Having nowhere else to stay, they decided to remain in the house as it was moved. They spent the time brewing coffee on their wood stove, with water borrowed from passing lawn faucets, and writing letters. (T.Times, 10/23/37, p.9). TPL-8814
