During the church board meeting Sunday night, Garland Cahoon presented to Board Chairman Chris Watson (see top photo) a gavel that he turned from a salvaged 3-inch by 5-inch maple timber that supported Bethany's bell.
"It was the hardest piece of wood I ever turned," Cahoon said. "Maple is hard wood, and the fire hardened it more." The gavel (see bottom photo), which still has burned areas on it, will be used by Watson and future board chairs.
