This room originally contained two large oak tables.  The current table and the one in the kitchen are original to the house.  The additional furniture and piano were not found in this room.  Boarders were served meals by staff, ate on fine china with linen tablecloths and linen napkins.  There is a pass-thru used by the kitchen staff.  Inside the built-in china cabinet is a set of china in the same pattern as that used by President Richard and Pat Nixon while in the White House.  President Nixon's great grandparents were Milhouses and Quakers.  They are buried at Caesar's Creek Meeting House cemetery, near Caesar's Creek Lake.  The wallpaper is the same as an early pattern used except that the first wallpaper had a white background instead of yellow.
