Subject: Highland Park, Texas Train Station

I lived from 1960 to 1969 across the street
from this train station in a
house my father built by renovating an old
armory (that was designed and
built very similar as the train station).
This armory served a vital
military role in the 1800's and early
1900's.  Dad added a new structure
to the armory, but kept the original
building as intact as possible. My
bedroom was in the old armory part and the
next room down the hall from
mine was haunted or possessed.    The armory
had also served as a
overnight sleep over place for President
Teddy Roosevelt.  I would to
hear from anyone that may know about any
information why the room was
haunted or possessed?  The station was
intact when we moved and was
later torn down and townhouse built there.
