"We used to use that for water. I just built the box around it. It was first put down right in the front, nearby where it is now, little bit toward the house. We move it to the backyard.The water was good. Didn't have to go deep for it, didn't have to have ice for that water The pump don't work now. I just put it back out there for my husband. He did the drilling, put it down, found the water It's just for remembrance of what they had back in them times."
