New Friends Needed by Old House

TIIE COLONIAL HOUSE By Robert Ixigan CAPE MAY — A simple early cottage located next to city hall (rear) and an official historic site of the National Park Service, the Colonial House is much improved as a result of 1979 efforts. The Greater Cape May Historical Society, sponsor of the restoration project, is making excellent progress toward the transformation of the property, looking toward even more services to the public.

Open daily to restoration tours and the sale of fresh ground peanut butter and stationery for restoration monies, the Colonial House drew many visitors from this area and far flung points of our country; persons pursuing history and our unique local

heritage.

DURING 1979 the inside of the Colonial House was repainted entirely throughout. Original wide tongue and grooved floor boards were taken down by hand and preserved. Most of the windows received newly hung shutters after the old ones were laboriously stripped, repaired and painted Closed to tours during January and February, the • Colonial House should present an exciting newer look come March — though the ultimate restoration will be far from complete. There are many ways area residents may help out Membership fees of $5
