Maine256c 801 E. Maine is the oldest house in Enid, Oklahoma.
Located in the 'Cherokee Strip' - one of the last stretches
of Indian Territory opened to white settlers in
'The Great Land Run of 1893'.

The distinctive tower corner and wrap around front porch were main features of the "Queen Anne" style. This is one of very few of this style left in town. It was constructed prior to being moved from just accross the Kansas border in 1896.

Favorite Quotes and stuff REMEMBER THIS
If you work for a man, in heaven's name WORK for him.
If he pays you wages which supply you with bread and butter, work for him,
speak well of him, stand by him and stand by the institution he represents.
If put to a pinch, an ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of cleverness.
If you must vilify, condemn and eternally disparage - resign you position,
and when you are outside, damn to your heart's content,
but as long as yoou are part of the institution, do not condemn it.
If you do that, you are loosening the tendrils that are holding you in place,
and at the first high wind that comes along, you will be uprooted and blown away,
and probably will never know the reason why. ~ Elbert Hubbard
