- Scope and Content
- Interesting artifact donated to the archives. Was taken from the original cabin and there was some discussion as the axe work on this type of log construction - apparently this was a trademark of local carpenters.
- Not sure if these were visitors to the cabin that signed one of the logs, one name and date appears to be Hampton Price, May 24, 1930; Geoffrey, Hampton, 1935, etc.
- Notes
- as the names were illegible on this and we lack storage for this type of artifact, the material was deaccessioned and destroyed in the spring of 2017.
