House was built in the early 20th century by M. B. "Mart" Norman, |

Norman, grandson of Mart Norman; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The unique and colorful history of the Lone Star |

the state's relics and historic sites is a cause deserving of |
|
|
highest praise; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 80th Texas |

|
Legislature hereby congratulate Isaac Norman on the inclusion of |
|

|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
