Old Stone Land Roller Has Local History Tale
In Armstrong township Carnahan farmyard sits a weathered stone land roller with a story. The block came from the old Court House torn down in 1808 and was later given to James Ralston, father of Mrs. Carnahan, who ran the Indiana House. Ralston hosted masons on Cork House construction and had the roller cut at night after work. After leaving the hotel business he moved the stone roller to the old Jackson Cave in Armstrong township where it served for more than twenty five years.
