White Elephant Saloon
—1863 · Frank Flohr —
Highway bridge construction in 1903 and 1904 was delayed by ice, flood, a river current change, misrouted iron shipments, and a suit for damages filed by the owners of the three buildings on respective corners of North Main and Adams Streets. Dr. J. R. Mudd, who owned this building, home of the White Elephant Saloon, received $600 in damages from the bridge company. The owner of the Galt House Hotel across the street received $3,600.
