Howdy Texans! On this week's episode of T for Texas listen to how a thriving town went to dust then one man decided he needed to buy the entire town. Manning Texas was the place to get lumber back in the day. It had everything a town in the old west could want. Alas a fire took out the town's sawmill complex, which was the beginning of the end for Manning. People started to leave Manning after a while. It soon became a ghost town. One man, MB Tyere, decide to buy the ghost town, so he could tear down all the building to sell their parts! He made himself quite a bit of money for back in the day!
