SHORT STORIES HISTORY
Gathering Honey from Hotel
All winter long workmen have been engaged in renovating and improving the DeNoyelles Hotel, purchased last fall by Dr. E. S. Taylor, and this week while E .I .Hall and A. C. Davidson were changing some of the window frames on the third floor they found a considerable quantity of honey, nearly one hundred pounds being taken from one window. The bees had stored the honey in the vacant spaces between the window casing and the brick wall and much of the honey was in excellent condition.

For a number of years it has been known that bees were working in the walls of the building and all efforts to route them out were unavailing. It is probable that hundreds of pounds of sweetness are stored in the building between the walls. But the question is, how to get to it.
