that he has standing at the present

this section Of the state. 1t is a barn
erected in 1854 by Jacob Kieffer. The
land was originally laid out in 17l6 and
was tract containing 2l6 acres. 1t
was bought by James Huff in 1892.
The tract is so acres now and the
old part of the building was deco
rated by the patriotic young men Of
Kantz, July 4th Of this year, by erect
ing the American flag from the roof Of
the building. The building is certainly
very old one and ifany one can beat
this record, we shall be pleased to hear
from them.
