Here early residents of what was then an isolated valley created their own cultural center. On land deeded by Richard Jacks, through subscription and donated labor, they constructed the first public school of the area. Across the way shortly thereafter, again by community efforts, they built "the Philomathean Hall" to house a library and to be the scene of debates, theatricals, concerts and other forms of creative expression. Theirs was indeed a splendid isolation.
