What has been called out as a "weatherbeaten shed, with a stone wall, and a two-story two-room building close to the roadside" has been identified. As we learned that Highland Farm was being sold off, part of Rogers Highland Farm was purchased by a group that founded the Freedom Hill Society, a socialist community founded in 1918 by the I.L G.W.U. The "I.L.G.W.U." refers to the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union , founded in 1900, a historically significant labor union that represented workers in the women's clothing industry in the United States and Canada. The society was also referred to as the Freedom Hill Summer Society. The "shed" actually bore the name name "Freedom Hill General Store." More details in the story.

Calling all mathematicians and history fans to do the math.
