The first courthouse on this site was built between 1823 and 1824, and a well stood on the southwest corner. People came by horse and buggy to the courthouse to conduct business, so a wooden watering trough for horses was provided near this location. After the courthouse burned in 1871, a concrete trough replaced the wooden one when the new courthouse was completed in 1873.
