Brokedown Palace - Mr. Fry's Home

I originally thought this was a goat shed, but my resident neighborhood historian tells me that this was his student's grandfather's home, built out of fencing boards. A long-gone stovepipe came up from the back of the gable end. Mr. Fry worked for the Yowell family, owners of thousands of acres of farmland in the county. Land rich and dirt poor. Born during the post Civil War Reconstruction Era, Mr. Fry died at age 95 in 1970.
