the walls were built like laying bricks.  the sods were cut about two feet long, were thirteen inches wide and four inches thick laid with grass side down.  we had one rough-made door about six feet high and 2-foot-6-inches wide which was difficult to fit into the sod walls.  the roof was lean-to type, there were three windows 2 feet by 2 feet with four lights in each.  being set in two foot wide walls not much light could come in, of course no storm windows.  many cold days in winter an inch or more frost would gather on the inside of the windows. 
inside, it was 12 feet wide and 22 feet long.  ten feet was curtained off for a bedroom, and the other 12 by 12 feet was used as a kitchen and living room./james rugg/1905
