Mendocino landmark burns down
Fire gutted a Mendocino County residence last week near the coast, one of the oldest homes in the area. The Drinkwater home, built before 1870, stood on land homesteaded in the 1860s by Francisco Faria for Louis Gonsalves, a settler from the Azores who arrived in 1864. The blaze also touched the Newman Hoak home east of Comptche, among the coastal region’s oldest structures. The note about greyhound origins is not connected to the fire.

A reflective note argues that changing times differ little from changing customs as each generation reshapes manners. It cites Times Square’s Tower demolition and 60 year old newspapers reporting Far East and Africa trouble, police crime syndicates, and cigarette health concerns to illustrate enduring concerns about time.
