Its post office opened Jan. 17, 1890 and closed in 1950. Burned and rebuilt several times, the post office was once listed in RIPLEY'S BELIEVE IT OR NOT! as the nation's smallest. By 1910 the community boasted a hotel and school along with Ehren Pine Company Sawmill. A stagecoach relay station ~~ called 26 - mile House ~~ on the Brooksville - Tampa route was in the vicinity in the mid 1800s. Survivors of this once bustling lumbertown include Ehren and Mt. Carmel cemeteries, and a bald cypress tree considered one of Fla's largest. Historical marker placed by the Pasco Board of County Commissioners & The Pasco County Historical Preservation Society 1993.
