Morrison United Methodist Church officials want city residents to know the historical Mote-Morris house is not doomed to destruction, not yet anyway. Church officials say several local people and one out of the area person church officials won't say where the person lives, have become interested in the house. Therefore, the church won't have the old house torn down just yet. "We have people studying the possibility," said Claron "Woody" Wagner, chairman of the church's Morris house Committee, in reference to the recent interest in the house.
The Committee's responsibility is to find a buyer, taker or anyone to move the house from its present Main Street location, next door to the church.The newly expressed interest in the house means it may eventually be moved to another site. And that, church officials say, would make everybody happy. By moving it would also allow the church to expand. But if, and only if, this latest attempt to move the house does not pan out, then the idea for destruction will be considered. "We'll trying hard to find somebody for that house," Wagner said. "We'll give it away."
