The '1830' is the old — the 'Samuel built' that's the founder's name, the '200 years' that's the age's count.
The 'deaths several' is the marked — the 'tragic' that's the deaths' kind, the 'most haunted' that's the state's rank. The 'nearby stacks' is the town's — the 'Lover's Leap' that's the fall's spot, the 'Witch Tree' that's the hanging's oak.
