Description

Most slave cabins consisted of fireplaces, but some were fortunate to have wood stoves. They could serve multiple purposes; they would heat the one-room cabin, some were flat on top so that cooking could be done on the top. In this picture, an iron was placed on top to heat up and could be used to iron clothes.
