One of the more modern houses henna the date 1774. before the American Republic was born! Everything is: primitive from the stone, tilermofed; houses with earthern floors and hewn ‘ out wuh sinks, to the wells without pumps in the basements. 0n the hill stands a ell-teen 1,200 years old. During the recent fighting most of the inhabitants moved away. but now want to return. My. how they can come back to live in these old dingy dungeons!
