McCamey

This tiny metal cage is located in downtown McCamey behind the Mendoza Museum and beside the Santa Fe Park on Highway 67.  This is not its original location as it has been moved several times.  It is 6.5 feet by 8.5 feet (55.25 square feet). It conforms to floor plan 1a.  Mary Glenn is the Director of the McCamey Public Library and she provided the information regarding this cage.  She told me that before the arrival of the cage prisoners were often tied to a pole.
