BUILT MORE THAN A CENTURY AGO, this big chimney in the home of Mrs. I. M. Willis,
east of Clinton, is still doing a daily chore as a heating unit. The xn sive chimney12 feet, square,
ceatral
feature of the old Ransford home at Stapleton, Tuckellamith Township,
and presents fireplaces to two rooms. Henry Ransford, the pioneer who bunt 'it about 1835;
was in a hurry to get it finished; he ran chart of hair for the monbar, so he chopped off his
own and mixed it in. S. J. Sweitzer, who recently spent several weeks cleaning up the big
chimney and its fireplaces, points to the Bolton family crest that faces on one room, over the
fireplace; the Ransford family crest is over the other fireplace, on the opposite side of the
chimney. To save on fuel, •pant of the fireplace under .the Ransford crest has been blocked in,
in recent years, with cobblestone masonry. The reduced fireplace, with a coal fire in it, still
does a surprisingly efficient job of heating a big living -room.
