Mr. Mills relates that his mother “would upholster for lots of people. I acquired a liking for antique items. I figured by getting in this business, I’d be exposed to those things again and it’s true.”
On opening day, the Mills had one-third of the merchandise that they currently have. The response to the shop has been substantial. All of the newly acquired merchandise has been from people putting items on consignment.
Mr. Mills says, “People will put a price on them. We don’t buy things from people. Business has been good and improves each day. They like the idea of the consignment shop. They like knowing they’ve got a place to bring their stuff and sell.”
The Mills still live in Estes where they have lived for 42 years. They have three girls
Deer cause
havoc in
county
With hunting season underway, the likelihood of deer and car collisions is increasing. Last week the Rappahannock News reported of two collisions which ended in extensive damage to the vehicles, but fortunately, no injuries to the drivers.
This week another incident occurred.
William Litten Calverton struck a deer on U.S. 211. He was driving east, approximately eight-tenths of mile east of Route 729. The time was approximately 10:15 a.m., when a deer ran into the car’s path.
Calverton struck the deer head-on. The collision resulted in the death of the deer. But, fortunately, the driver was wearing his seat belt and no injuries were sustained by him.
Calverton was driving a 1997 Ford pick-up. The dam- age to the vehicle was estimated at $1,100.
