Summer House Info Sign
Photographer: Duane Hall
Taken: June 4, 2015
Caption: Summer House Info Sign
Additional Description: Trader Adair wrote that the Chickasaws could erect a summer house in one day, using no tools but a hatchet and knife. A cypress shingle roof, pine or cypress clapboard walls, and a covering of bark held on with lashed-on saplings made a shelter “... the side and gables of which are bullet-proof”.
