Description
Proprietors of the Mocksville Telephone
Exchange. By 1902, the telephone switchboard was being moved from
the L.G. Horn residence to the Weant building with Miss Sally
Atchison in charge of the central office. Sometime later, the Horn
Telephone Company office moved to the second floor of the Horn
Johnson building. Two operators split exchange duty with ten hour
shifts. In 1931, the exchange moved again to the Southern Bank
building. In 1958, the exchange was replaced with dial service and
the office moved to Gaither Street.
