HS 15, Stable, Buffalo Calves The only specific mention made of this structure was by Denig in 1843: "The openings . . . under the galleries, are fitted in some places with small huts or houses. Behind the kitchen there are five of such houses. . . The first of these is a stable for Buffalo calves, which are annually raised here." Larpenteur, in 1835, mentioned using timber out of the old stores "to make a pasturing pen for calves," also a shed for them. HS 16, Hen House The hen house was the second of the five huts that Denig said were located under the north gallery behind the kitchen. He added that it was "well lined, plastered, and filled with chickens." (See HS 15) HS 17, Artists' Studio This was the third of the five buildings behind the kitchen. (See HS 15 and 16.) Denig said it was "a very pleasant room." None of the artists at the fort mentioned whether they used it or not. HS 18, Cooper's Shop Denig listed this as the fourth of the huts north of the kitchen. (See HS 15-17.)
