Tragedy: The Mechems� 3 year old son disappeared in 1959 and was apparently taken by a pack of grey wolves and killed. History: This cabin is noted as one of the stop-over houses for the Underground Railroad. This cabin is one of a few log cabins still sitting on original sites; and was discovered while razing the home built around the one room cabin.
