Did you know that salt pork was considered a remedy for consumption? (They probably meant BACON-- because that's pretty much a remedy for a lot of things.)
This article was in the Washington Star newspaper out of Washington, NJ on 5 Nov 1903 (page 3).

#UpdatesFromtheManor Getting Ready for 2022
As we plan towards our seasonal opening the first Sunday in June (1 to 4pm), after being closed for a couple of years, we wanted to make our future visitors aware of some of the updates at the Manor.
1. Updated exterior (brown & white) direction signs
2. Interior work (plastering and repainting a couple of our rooms)
3. Some changes in our displays (we'll be rotating certain items in and out of display this year)
4. Updated historical information about the Manor and Oxford (you can also read some of the information at www.warren200.com).
5. Happy smiling faces greeting you when you arrive (we're always happy, but now we're exceptionally happy to be back).
6. Tours will be kept to about 5 people per group (unless a family group) to ensure our visitors have a more personal experience. We have some seating in the Study for our visitors waiting for a tour to begin.
7. Rotation of displays and displayed artifacts.
And a few more surprises. (We don't want to give too many spoiler alerts!)
We can't wait to visit with you. See you soon! ... See MoreSee Less
