Worthington, Pennsylvania105 Mak Square Ext1 min readFile amended Official site Directions

Yellow Dog Village is a former company town in Worthington, Pennsylvania. Former mining-company housing preserved by private owners.

Industrial decline and well-water problems contributed to abandonment.

Is Yellow Dog Village haunted?

No claims are filed here — the record keeps this place for its documented history, not for a haunting on file.

The record — long form

Yellow Dog is the named — the 'contract' that's the union's ban, the 'wore proudly' that's the insult's flip. The 'company built' is the bound — the 'limestone' that's the mine's product, the 'housing for silence' that's the deal's terms. The 'wells tainted' is the ended — the 'bacteria' that's the water's kill, the '2011' that's the last's out.

The 'toys left' is the fled — the 'hastily' that's the leave's mark, the 'furniture' that's the rooms' keep. The 'farm buyers' is the found — the 'didn't know' that's the purchase's shock, the 'camper lived' that's the restore's start. Yellow Dog is the opened — the 'open house' that's the access's form, the 'residents return' that's the stories' source.

The file keeps Yellow Dog: the named insult, the bound housing, the tainted wells, and the fled toys.

Yellow Dog Village is the archive's Pennsylvania file — the town named for the contract that banned unions.

Why this file matters

Yellow Dog Village is the archive's Pennsylvania file — the village that wore its insult as a name.

A village keeps its contract — the file's suggestion being that Yellow Dog's hold is the named: the 'yellow dog' that's the union's ban, the 'wells tainted' that's the end's cause, and the 'toys left' that's the flee's mark.
