Old Trustee House, Shakertown, near Harrodsburg, Ky. (Printed verso reads: "This commodious structure was built by the Shaker Colony in 1839. In this building policies of local government were decided and community guests were entertained. A house of dignity and charm. The attractive long hallways, with twin spiral stairs, ascending from the main hall, are unique and apart in design. Sister Mary C. Settles was the last surviving member of the Shaker Colony.")
