site of the mound covered by forest.
Thirteen or fourteen years after their
visit a tornado swept directly along Ser

clear. This led to retaining the land for
cultivation. but by 1883 IL had reiapsed
again to a state of nature and was over
grown with sumach and briers.
In that year Prof Frederick w Put
