Keely Greer's Cotton Gin

The gin stood across the Lexington Road from Chalky Level. The boll weevil destroyed the cotton crop, causing financial hardship for many families, including the Greers.

Keely's horse Dandy

Dandy was Keely Greer's pride - they cut a fine figure bowling down Lexington Road toward town. The tree is a holly.

Stagecoach Driver's Horn

According to family tradition, the stagecoach driver would use this horn to signal Francina how many passengers would be staying for a meal or for the night. Make of staves like a barrel, there are three rings that hold the staves in place. The ring at the mouth are gone.
