PLANS The cabin at The Jug had three rooms.

There was a square living-room, entered through an enclosed porch on its western grade.

At the end of the living-room opposite the entrance were two doors, one leading to Margaret's room, the other to the room occupied by the boys.

Thomas himself slept in a bunk, resembling a ship's bunk, built against the north wall.
The furnishings of the living-room consisted of a home-made table, a big box stove, three home-made chairs and some chests, which served the double purpose of storage places for clothing and seats.

A cupboard was built against the wall at the left of the entrance, and between two windows on the south side of the room, which looked out upon The Jug, was a shelf upon which Thomas kept his Bible and Margaret her sewing basket--a little basket which she had woven herself from native grasses.
