Due to a misunderstanding in election ,the matter was delayed until 1889 when Judge Edwards,in the February term of court,declared that the election had been valid. This money,together with $4,000.00 insurance on the old courthouse,was used to build a handsome two-story courthouse with turrets on four corners and a high steeple on the top. Bricks used in this construction were made by inmates of the Missouri State Penitentiay in Jefferson City. |
