It was owned by Mr. Raulerson and apparently died from a lightening strike.<br /> <br /> He and two friends felled the tree toward the swamp and retrieved as much from the butt end as was possible with the tractor they had available. Much of the top remained in the swamp.<br /> <br /> From this tree, Mr. Tommy built a recreational kitchen and dining hall. It provided the wood for all of the studs, rafters, siding, porch and the furniture inside with some wide boards left over which have been used to build tables for friends.
