Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mesick Genealogy: Muzigh Musig Musick Mesig Mesick
In the double door of this log house is a bullet hole which, tradition says, was made by a shot gun in the hands of Tories who attempted to rob and murder the old man, who was re puted to have some money in his dwelling. The Tories took him. Three times to the cellar and hung him from the beam overhead to compel him to divulge the hiding place of his treasure; but his neighbors rallied to his rescue, and the Tor ies were alarmed and escaped. This fact indicates that he had survived the date 1776, and had reached his 85th year.
