Inscription.
The small whitewashed house just north of here was built by Joseph H. Armstrong in 1881-82. By this time, his family owned Johnson's Fort, and he took down the bastion there and used the adobe brick to build this house. It was also for some years the postal station to run the mail to various communities. The home was originally located near the fort and was moved three times until it ended up here.
