Around the "Defeated Camps," the scene of the wors t Indian massacre in Kentucky, were the first developments •• of t h i s through which Boone had blazed his fa -mous Trace and Gov. Shelby buil t the Wilderness Road, the first "waggon road" f r o m Infant Kentucky t o Mother Virginia.

Beauty and magnificence combine wi th the his-tor ic to make this, as- a distinguished visitor recent-ly exclaimed, one of the most interest ing spots tn Kentucky, in the museum, which had been a-pio-neer log cabin home, and about i t a r e gathered'rel ics representative of ear ly home a r t s and Industries of t he Mountains. The Wilderness Road Weavers pro-cess cloth f r o m wool and flax, while McHargue's W a t e r Mill on the b a n k s of Lit t le Laurel grind com meal and Graham flour. One may see both in full op-eration most seasons of the year . Developments also include group camps, picnic grounds, marking of in-

. terestlng points and miles of roads, pa th s and trails.
