The roadside stories worth pulling over for.
An early leader of the Texas progressive era and a national spokesman for the concerns of farmers, O. P. Pyle had this home constructed in 1903-04, when he was editor and publisher of the Mineola "Courier." Built by local craftsmen, including "Zonn" Wren and his brothers William and Frank Wren, the house reflects influences of the Queen Anne style in the wraparound veranda, conical tower, second floor porch and gabled roof.
