But it won't be for long. Even as we toured this old Cape, Roger Clarkson, the Realtor, was talking about some of the changes he planned on making once he became the owner. Roger has been buying o and selling houses around Hanover for some time now, and he knows a bargain when he sees one. Here was a house (in not-bad shape) on over an acre on the Greensboro Road for less than a hundred grand. Beyond the fields in back of the house, construction on the "Berrill Farms" Condos continued; those are being priced closer to $350,000, which told us a little about how Hanover has changed and a little about the deal Roger managed to find for. himself.

with acre-building Jots in high demand and selling for upwards of $60,000, a couple old farmhouses with open land and outbuildings are hanging on along this stretch of road. Roger will make some needed improvements to this house and put it back on the market for somewhere around $150,000, and it will still be a bargain.

He'll have some nice old features to work with: we saw wide pine floors, two shallow fireplaces, old plank doors, a yard lined by ancient granite markers. These were things enjoyed by the house's former owner, Bud Weymouth, a Dartmouth man (class of' 20) who stayed around. Most of the people remember Bud as a fixture at the information booth on the green up in town. For nearly a quarter-century of summers he held the post of attendant, and for his loyal service he was recognized by the College at the 1975 commencement. That, incidentally, was Roger Clarksort's commencement. Around here, despite all the changes, it's still a small world.
