In 1909, after the death of her husband, Sadie moved from their large home on 109 Gill St. to this home on the corner of Durrance St. and W. Retta Esplanade. The property was purchased in 1900. This move allowed Sadie to be closer to her best friend, Marian McAdow. Perry and Marian lived across Retta Esplanade in a large home just to the northeast of the large Banyan tree. Sadie was the sister of Mrs. Albert F. Dewey. Perry McAdow was a wealthy goldminer and wheelchair confined. Mr. Farrington had been his business manager and assistant in most of his businesses invested in Florida. He also served as Perry's legs.
