The Homestead of Jonathan Cable was described in the following passage:
"Persistent spring that trickled from the eastern hillside base
Had marked a site within the forest wilds a homestead place.
Its crystals brook flowed Southward down a valley near the hills
In widening course as wayside fills its channel fills.

On every side stood giant oaks proudly nestling maple, ash and beech,
Fragrant sassafras and wild-nut trees  above some lowly dogwood's reach.
Spreading elms, sycamores and weeping willows fringed the creek below which slowly westward
crept and rippled there to met the sunset glow.

Within this sheltered growth the wolf and fox became a wily snare
to stalk rabbit, fowl or deer while feeding unaware.
The eagle screamed and wild fowls perched on branches overhead while woodchucks dug their
holes unscared and porcupines had little dread

There Red Men's arrows pierced their hunted game which mother nature fed
When pioneers arrived to tame the wilds and claim a country stead.
But soon the woodman's ax cleared trees and tamed the beasts of prey
To sow the seeds of grass and golden grain to welcome harvest day."

According to Judith Burkhardt, Jonathan Cable signed his deed. She said that this was unusual back then
because many people could not write and would sign documents with an 'X'.
