A new buyer out of South Carolina has bought the historic Maple St Mansion in Carrollton. It was built in 1890 by the Mandeville family and was th first house in Carrollton with running water. I've heard that lady Mandeville convinced the union army to spare it when they were in the area.

Now a demolition permit has been issued, based on if repairs needed will be too costly. Channel 2 came out today to meet with sign-wielding anti-demolition protestors. Over 8,000 people joined a "Save the Mansion" Facebook group, but only 15 of us actually showed up. I realize today is a work day but still, 15 people is a pathetic turn out.

Does no one care enough to stand up for history anymore?
