The south wing of the building was added after 1909. In order to prove up on her claim Elinore had to build and occupy a residence on her land. Fortunately the property line between Clyde’s land and Elinore’s newly filed claim ran within two feet of Clyde’s house and so an addition to the house allowed her to fulfill the residency requirement. The south wing is also built of log and has two rooms, one with a low angle gable and the other a medium gable.
