That was then (1953).
From chapter 30:
A mile east of Harmony, Indiana, just north of the highway, stands a house that may be tkan to represent much of mid-Victorian sophistication and comfort. Built in 1872 as the home of a local doctor, it is still owned by his daughter.
This is now. .
Google Maps
And a tip of the hat to Jim Grey for helping me pinpoint the site of the McKinley House, which is now a bed and breakfast.
Harmony is located 58 miles west/southwest of Indianapolis and 19 miles east-northeast of Terre Haute.
