  1. Large Stones

    Share Share Post
    In James Sullivan's Larry's mountains there is a number of long stones standing. There are six feet or more high, and two feet wide and two feet thick. There is another stone standing near Jimmy's house, and another where Morty Larry's house was. If you visit one stone you can see the whole of them. A man that was out from the land commission told Jimmy's father that they were some place of worship.
