Tyler and Katrila Hunter build a house close to the Hastings village, Tyler becomes a trapper and one day he is removing

Towns spring up as there is need, and that's how Hastings, Maine, came about ... in this case, harvesting lumber was the need. When that need is no more, people leave, buildings are torn down or moved, and the tree growth takes over where there were streets, a school, homes, stores ... but once upon a time there were families there, and A Hastings Tale is a story
about them.
