In 1831, Massachusetts native Albert Pike headed west, eventually settling near Fort Smith (Sebastian County). Long before his fame as a lawyer, author, soldier, and leading Mason, he briefly taught school in this one-room cabin once located in the hills of Sebastian County. The cabin was eventually removed to the grounds of the Crawford County Courthouse, where it was restored and made available for viewing.
