Mount House was purchased by The Rev F E W Hewitt. Although retired he sometimes preached in the Tavistock Church. He had 6 servants including a cook and butler. The stables were still in use and two chargers were looked after by the groom “Gunner George”. The bell ringers came up every Christmas. Black tie was always worn a dinner. The Rev Hewitt sold Mount Tavy to Mr Wedd in 1940 and moved to New Zealand
