House History

RECEIVED Sat., July 18, 2020

Dear Editor,
    The Judge Sebron Sneed House needs to be preserved and saved. This house needs to be saved and rebuilt. It would be a terrible thing to tear this house down. Every effort needs to be made to rebuild and restore it. I first became aware of it in the book Texas Houses of the 19th Century. I also lived in Tyler,Texas. I truly love the state of Texas and its history and historical landmarks. I have an AA Degree in history. The Judge Sneed House can and must be preserved. It should never have been allowed to deteriorate. It needs to be brought back and be preserved for future generations. Please do not let this piece of history go to waste. Historians and preservationists need to act fast before it is too late. Plantation houses and landmarks from the 19th century should never be demolished or allowed to disappear.
