Note 97 — ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY AND DESCRIPTION: THE MANSION HOUSE
Reading edition
Ibid. According to local tradition, the tavern near Peace Cross originally was a residence, then a tavern, a gambling house, and a bawdy house. While a gambling house, it was robbed, and shots were fired after the fleeing burglar. One of the shots went into the shutters, and the hole made by this shot is still visible in the portion of the shutter used as paneling in the living room.
