FROM SPURS TO MILITARY MEMORABILIA, miniatures to antiquecars and a log jail house, the Coryell Museum and HistoricalCenter contains an extensive collection of unique historicaltreasures within its walls. The history of Gatesville and CoryellCounty is well preserved at this establishment.

Founded in 1980 when several Coryell County area histori-cal associations consolidated, the museum outgrew its originallocation at Graham Lumber Yard. The addition of the spursand western and sports memorabilia collections, donated bythe family of Lloyd and Madge Mitchell, further emphasizedthe need for a larger facility.

Coryell County native Wes Gilbreath Sr. provided thesolution when he donated several buildings in downtownGatesville to the museum in 1997. This spacious facility isfilled with a wide assortment of historical artifacts from theCoryell County area.

Spurs, Spurs and More SpursThe Mitchell spur collection prompted the 77th Legislatureof the State of Texas to designate Gatesville as the Spur Capi-tal of Texas, commending the Mitchell family for its generousdonation and the museum for its preservation efforts.

More than 6,000 pairs of spurs are included in the collec-

tion. There are examples from all the early spurmakers,including spurs once owned by Rex Bell and Pancho Villa.There is also a pair of English riding spurs once worn byJacqueline Kennedy Onassis.

The museum also houses the oldest public building inCoryell County, a double-walled log jail built in 1855, the onlyone of its kind remaining in Texas. Outlaw Sam Bass was onceconfined within its walls—or rather under them, as the sheriffoccupied the main floor and prisoners were kept in a spacedug under the jail. John H. Chrisman was the contractor forthe jail.

Several SectionsThe Dawson Cooper Gallery contains military exhibitsbeginning with the War of 1812 and extending into moremodern times. The collection includes artifacts from CampHood and tributes to local veterans who served during theNormandy Invasion, Iwo Jima, World War II, and the Vietnamand Iraq wars.

The Iwo Jima exhibit includes items from L.V. Arnett, whowas present at the battle and was designated a “Wind Talker,”or transmitter of coded messages.

Also on display is a uniform worn by Mary Catherine

Mitchell, daughter of Lloyd and Madge Mitchell. Mitchellserved in the military during the Vietnam War as an anes-thetist on a hospital ship, according to museum volunteerdocent Alison Esparza. After retiring, Mitchell moved back toGatesville and now volunteers at the museum, caring for theMitchell Collection.

Area History Comes AliveThe histories of Coryell County and Gatesville come alivethrough the many displays. Featured are items from Gov. PatNeff and Mother Neff State Park, the Civilian ConservationCorps, Gatesville State School for Boys, Purmela Post Office,Lincolnville, Buckhorn Saloon, Fort Gates, Medical PlasticsLaboratory, Bigham Hardware and Furniture Co., which laterbecame the R.E. Powell Hardware Company, and others.

The Bigham display includes an antique desk and type-writer. “They sold everything you could possibly need,”Esparza said.

Early examples of plastic skeletons produced by MedicalPlastics Laboratory are also on display. Antique cars include a1915 Model T and a 1953 Ford owned by the Powell family. Anextensive farm collection includes a cotton scale and wagon, aswell as pieces of the old cotton gin, an ice wagon, mill stonesfrom the old Straw’s Mill, and a large assortment of hand tools.Other exhibits include old-time dental and doctor’s offices, agas station display, beauty shop, kitchen appliances, quilts,schoolroom, blacksmith shop, post office and ice cream parlor.

Works by local artists are on display in the James CoryellRoom. A large wood sculpture by Carol Zeigler holds a place ofhonor. But the artwork is not limited to this room. Paintings,sculptures and drawings are located throughout the museum.Of particular interest are the many beautiful maps drawn byJon Brown displayed throughout the building.

Volunteers and FundingThe museum is operated totally by volunteers. Esparza saidthat of the 185 members, 40 are volunteers who work at themuseum on a regular basis.

Funding for the museum comes from a variety of sources.The group holds four fundraisers during the year, and they arealways well attended by the community. Proceeds from the giftshop provide for the day-to-day expenses. Unique gifts, sou-venirs, books, posters, post cards and other items are available.The Gilbreath Room, formerly the Bavarian Inn, is availablefor rental for weddings, receptions and parties, providing anadditional source of funding.

Historical EducationThe museum is a popular destination for Coryell County stu-dents. If you are a school or group and wish to plan a visit,volunteer docents are available to provide lectured tours. Toschedule a group tour, call (254) 865-5007.

THE SECOND SUNDAY IN MARCH triggersDaylight Saving Time, when we “springahead” and set our clocks one hourahead or forward.

That’s also the best day to change thebatteries in smoke alarms and carbonmonoxide detectors—even if the batter-ies aren’t dead.

If you don’t have fire alarms and COdetectors, your family is at risk. Thealarms sound loudly if smoke or gas ispresent in your home so you can get out.

Carbon monoxide is a clear, odorlessgas that is deadly but difficult to detect. Ifyou don’t have an alarm, it’s unlikely thatyou will know if your home has a CO leak.

Carbon monoxide doesn’t come justfrom cars. Your gas furnace or stove is apotential source of the gas fumes. TheU.S. Environmental Protection Agencyoffers these tips for poison prevention:a Keep gas appliances properly

adjusted.a Use electric space heaters, not gas

space heaters.a Install an exhaust fan, vented to the

outdoors, over a gas stove.a Open flues when wood-burning fire-

places are in use. a Have a trained professional inspect,

clean and tune up all components ofyour heating system annually. Repairleaks promptly.

a Do not idle your car inside the garage.

HEART OF TEXAS ELECTRIC COOPERATIVE works hard to provide our members withreliable and safe electric service at the lowest possible cost. When someone tamperswith the electric meter or lines, they are stealing from our members and from theco-op, and adding to the cost of providing electricity.

What Is Meter Tampering?Meter tampering is when someone illegally hooks up to a power supply, self-connectsa meter that has been disconnected, or tampers with a meter so that it does not accu-rately record electricity usage.

Some of the signs of meter tampering include a damaged or missing meter coveror seal and/or extra wires attached in or around the meter.

Deliberate meter tampering or attempts to divert service with intent to not payconstitutes theft of energy. This type of activity is a crime that can lead to a fine and/or a prison sentence. Most importantly, it can cause harm to innocent people.

Those who tamper with the meters may think that the worst thing that can hap-pen if they’re caught is that their service will be disconnected, but that is not true.They can expect a visit from the local law enforcement agency, and the co-op iswithin its right to pursue any criminal complaint procedure available under the law.

Before reconnection of any service disconnected for meter tampering, currentdiversion, or unauthorized reconnection of service, the consumer will be requiredto pay for damages to the cooperative equipment resulting from the tampering,provide a sufficient deposit to cover future tampering or damage, and pay an amountestimated to cover service used or service received.

Safety ConcernHowever, meter tampering and elec-tricity theft is more than just a crime.It is also a safety concern.

Heart of Texas EC seals all of itsmeters for a reason—the same reasonyou have locks on your doors. Thisseal is meant to protect the member,the general public and employees.

”It is very important that allmeters remain sealed and secure,”Member Services Manager Ron Pos-ton says. “When seals, meters orother equipment are tampered with,it is not only illegal, but extremelydangerous.”

The seal keeps out people who have no business opening the meter. No one hasany business opening it except employees of Heart of Texas EC and electrical con-tractors with co-op permission.

Improperly sealed meters can cause a fire at the meter or inside the house, orelectrical shock to anyone who comes into contact with it. Electricity thieves canalso unknowingly feed energy back into the power line, making it dangerous forlinemen who may assume that the power line they are working on is de-energized.

Heart of Texas EC offers a $250 reward for reporting verified meter tampering.If you learn that a neighbor or acquaintance is tampering with an electric meter, orare concerned that a meter has been tampered with, report it immediately by calling1-800-840-2957. You could save someone’s life.

WE USE ELECTRICITY IN OUR HOMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY, but we rarely think abouthow it gets to the wall outlets or switches. Distribution lines deliver electricity tohomes and most commonly connect to a house through a service drop. The electric-ity goes through the meter box to the service panel. The service panel, often called abreaker box, is where breakers and fuses protect the wires inside your house fromelectrical overload.

With so much electricity funneling out of the breaker box through the rest of thehome to your outlets and switches, it is important to know how to use a breaker boxsafely.

Arc-fault circuit interrupters are installed directly in the breaker box and aredesigned to protect against fires caused by arcing faults in home electrical wiring.

Arcing faults can be triggeredby overloaded circuits, dam-aged wires, cracked wire insu-lation, loose or improperconnections, faulty electricalequipment or overheated elec-trical wires.

An AFCI monitors currentflow and can distinguishbetween normal, working arcsand unwanted, dangerous arcs.When an unwanted arcing con-dition is detected, it shutsdown the circuit immediately.It is important to note thatAFCIs do not provide protec-tion against all of the possiblecircuit faults that can causefires, but they are a significantstep forward in electrical firesafety. Contact a qualified elec-trician to have them installed.

If an appliance is malfunc-tioning, if there is another electrical malfunction in your home, or if the circuitbreaker flipped during a power outage, it may be necessary to cut off or switch on thepower at the breaker box. If you must flip a switch at the breaker box, always remem-ber to step away and look away. Protect your eyes and body just in case an arc shouldoccur.

Never attempt to turn off power at the breaker box if you must stand in water todo so. If you touch the breaker box while wet or while standing in water, it couldcause electric shock or death. If you cannot reach your breaker box safely, call yourelectric cooperative to shut off power at the meter.

Be sure to call a qualified electrician if blowing fuses or tripping circuit breakersare a recurring problem. This means there is something wrong with your electricalsystem, and it needs to be inspected.
