Sorry tohear that Clarysville Inn is gone- had just been there last year on
a bus trip for lunch and took photos. There was a small book with some
family information on the table when one entered.

In response to a listmember's tip, I contacted Naomi Nicholas in
Cumberland,
MD for more information on the Clarysville Inn. Mrs. Nicholas has
just sent
me a clipping from the Cumberland, Maryland TIMES-NEWS reporting
that the
Clarysville Inn was destroyed by an accidential fire last month.
The
complete story ran in the newspaper's March 11, 1999, edition.
