A treasure-trove of local history and lore, and repository of the famouse "Lincoln Flag." This was the flag from the night that President Lincoln was assasinated, and the flag shows blood stains from the President. 

You will also find the noose used in the only public hanging in the town. Plus: 200 year old arsenic tainted birds. Rumors of the ghost of Juliette Peirce, the philosophers wife. Nightshirt belonging to the fattest man in the area -- a Mr. Cornelius, who was 645 pounds at death and was lowered into the ground by a crane. Mourning attire.

Admission is $5.00 for adults, $3.00 for students, and children are free. For information please call 570-296-8126.
