Artist: Shirley Beisel
Peabody Historical Society, 212 N Walnut, Peabody, KS 66866
The block is located on the back of the Morgan House. The quilt is very visible

It was originally a barn for horses and may later have been used for storage of coffins
when the property became Peabody's first funeral home. It may have housed the early
day car belonging to Editor Morgan of the Peabody Gazette. It is currently used
mostly for storage although it is hoped it can be developed as an agricultural museum.
