    Old Houses. . . . . 28 - 10 - '38
    Our house is one of the oldest in this district. There was an old settle in our house long ago. People who were working in our house slept on this settle at night. The fire-place is situated at the middle wall. The chimney wall is built of bricks and and morter. There are iron bars outside our windows. They were put there for protection from robbers.
