Scope and Content
Green House on High Street in Waynesburg, Greene County, Pennsylvania.
Caption reads, "This is one of our historic buildings. It was in the rooms on the second floor that Miss Margaret Kerr Bell taught the girls' classes in 1850; this was the beginning of the Female Department of the College. This building was used for years as a hotel: the bar-room was in the room now occupied by J. G. Gordan's store. In this building Messrs. Harry Taylor and George Huffman carry on their large and extensive real estate and insurance business. In the room where once the students, with pencil and slate, struggled with interest and square root, are put through some of the plans that have made this one of the leading real estate firms of the county."
