From out this house

the long version

"There were stumps all about but there was grace in the cabins. The cabins themselves soon gave way to white colonial houses on the hills to which carriages came on Sunday afternoons. From Out This House is a story of the territorial days of a far western commonwealth, of an area which became several commonwealths. It is the story of how a little town started to be a big one- and the early growth is dramatically pictured in its culture and its industry." -- Goodreads
