Stories of Places in
Out of Way Corners

In the Ragged mountains of Nir-
ginia live the lost Hessians, queer
and interesting people. They are the
descendants of the Hessian prisoners
who were confined at Charlottesville
during the revolutionary war. At the
close of the revolution the Hessians
were released in a body. They de
termined to march back into the
Ragged mountains and establish
new home in those hills. Here they
and their descendants have lived ever
since. They put up their crude cabins
made of logs and mud. and they have
had no other kind of dwelling from
that time 70 this.
