In the early 1830's, a mercantile business occupied this site, first owned and operated by George Leak, then successively by John W. Starr, C.C. Epps & Co., Benton & Cook, L.H. Cook & Son, Wilson Walton, and Mrs. E. A. King. The two story wood frame building had an upper floor that served as a meeting hall for a Masonic Lodge, Temperance Union, and other social and political organizations. The first Starrsville Post Office opened here in 1836. One of the county's oldest buildings, it was demolished in 1992.
