Following the war and with fail ing health Mr. Jones moved to Morehead City where he passed the rest of his life, It is said that j his mind failed him and that for several years before his death he i was confined in one of the rooms : of this old house. The house was built of fine tim-l hers. Fireplaces in each room fur nished heat while in the kitchen I there still remains a large fire- j place with crane where the family cooking must have taken place. A study of the rooms downstairs show i craftmanship in the finishings oi l doors and windows. The entrance hall contained a graceful stairway connecting with the main parlor or living room with heavy pilaster trim about the double doors. Cor nices of plaster of heavy design joined the side walls and ceiling.
