TATTERED AND BATTERED IN OLD AGE

DREW C. WILSON

The Virginian-Pilot

Built for the U.S. Lifesaving Service in 1874 and abandoned by the

U.S. Coast Guard in 1988, the Oregon Inlet Station shows the effects

of neglect. The heirs to the property and Dare County will battle

over ownership rights in Dare County Superior Court April 15.
