Lightly tinted photo image of two men at the monument and cave residence of the "Hermit" William Hewlitt on Route 23 north in Pike County. Hewlitt built and lived in this cave (then in the wilderness) from 1820 to 1834. The cave was formed by layers of stone under a shelving rock. The pike was built past the cave in 1840, and the monument was erected in 1842.

Black and white photo of the old stone Post Office and somewhat behind it, the Sixth Street M.E. Church surrounded in flood water.

The stone post office was razed in 1956 for the construction of a five story Montgomery-Ward Department Store.
