This episode originates with a diary written in by three individuals and because they did, Sally was able to discover a wonderful story--The House of Seven Gables.
This house in West Plains, Missouri, has a long history of occupants and use, including the birth of 167 babies! One family left most of the furniture, and over 600 books to the next occupants of the home and among the books, was this diary.
The current occupants bought the dilapidated, nearly condemned, structure and lovingly restored it to beauty and function.
We ask this question: Would you ever write in someone else's diary? Fortunately for us, these people did and we can now enjoy this story.
