Recently Grandma (Sally Humphreys Nicoll), who grew up in our house, produced this small snapshot from the 1940s of girls at play in the snowy yard of 233 South St., where we live now. Of greatest interest to CHICKEN SCOOP readers, however, is the impressive chicken coop that used to extend from the back of our house. After use as a coop for generations, it was used to store furniture, and eventually was lost in a fire (much to Grandma's mother Eleanor Humphreys' great delight and relief! She obviously wasn't the hoarder the rest of us are).
