This in from Karen Ramsburg: Dr. Paul Orange, a Franklin County physician, has offered to relocate the Justice William Smith House in order to avoid having the local fire department from having it demolished. In a story in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Len Barcousky wrote:
” “I have a love of history,” Dr. Paul Orange said Monday.
