log buildings, and was very prosperous. William Yeoman and others followed their
example. The place was then called Shaw Hill. The land on this hill was of good
soil, and well timbered, but rather stony. In consequence of the stone, Lemuel
Ackley gave it a new name. He called it "Stone Arabia" and it has always
retained the same name.
