Courtesy of Kathy Hall. Mass grave of five people who died of dreadful small pox east of Muddig. Thirteen people in all were quarantined in a tenant farmer’s house, including three children, for two weeks in 1901. When the quarantine was lifted, the house and all belongs were burned to keep disease from spreading.
