James “Cowboy” Eaton tightens a pole jack that will help stabilize a portion of the historic hospital at 907 Garrison Ave., that is part of the historical Fort Gibson stockade. The four-phase project has only been funded for the first half of the project for $800,000 by the state Legislature. The last two phases will cost the same and will have to be funded by private donations in order to be completed.
