To the editor:
Having always lived in town it was quite an experience for me to use an outhouse.
Each one was different but they all had a bench with a hole. Sometimes there were two holes, one for adults and one for children.
Most of them were just plain wood but some had a small window and even a curtain.
Ventilation was provided by cutting a star or moon in the upper door.
