301 N Tioga St

"Chairman Edward Sprigg of the Y.M.C.A. building committee yesterday sold the Humphrey house, the Y.M.C.A. site, to Mrs. Sarah C. Bagley, consideration $500. The house is to be moved to the lot No. 706 Cascadilla street.
As Miss Humphrey made a donation of $500 from the original price of $10,000 for the property, it makes the actual cost of the site just $9,000. The directors feel that the price is very satisfactory considering the fine location of the new site just opposite the site of the prospective new post office.
Mr. Sprigg says a contract was made to have the Humphrey house removed promptly so that construction may commence as soon as practicable this fall.
The new building committee will have a short meeting tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock in the office of Gibb & Waltz to consider the revised plan for the new building."

"The old Humphrey house is being removed by L. S. Bagley to Cascadilla street, near his own home. He bought the old house from the Y.M.C.A., for $500. There are large heavy timbers in the main, front part. The rear additions are of lighter material."

"A number of the residents of West Buffalo street are complaining of the cutting of large limbs from the trees for the moving of the Humphrey house down the street."

Ithaca Daily Journal, October 19, 1907, 3.

"The Humphrey house which is being removed from the new Y.M.C.A property at the corner of Tioga and Buffalo street has been left standing at the corner of Geneva and Albany streets for the past day and John Fish, the contractor who is moving the building has been having considerable trouble with property owners along the street.
The Humphrey house is three stories high and very broad, necessitating the cutting of many limbs and the moving of electric lights at every corner and telephone wires on every block.
A permit to move the house was obtained from the city on condition that the owner should pay any expense or damage caused. Two days ago the Bell Telephone Company, through its attorney, George S. Tarbell, served notice upon the parties moving the building that it would allow none of its wires to be cut and that it would move none of its wires, unless pair or indemnified for all expenses incurred by moving of wires, cross-arms and cables, which might necessarily be cut or removed so as to allow the big building to go through.
The owners have threatened to hold the city liable, claiming that the city had given them right of way, but in view of their permit and after getting legal advice the owners and movers came to the conclusion that the claim of the Telephone Company was just and legal and have arranged to indemnify the Telephone Company, and the building is now moving westward."

"The Humphrey house, which has closed traffic in West Buffalo street for more than a week while being moved from the corner of Buffalo and Tioga streets to the corner of Meadow and Cascadilla streets, was taken into Corn street this morning and Buffalo street opened."
