History
4
Blasted from living rock, this jail confined many of the bad men who crowded into the district during the boom days. Local tradition says that the first inmate in 1881 was the miner who built the jail. It was contributed to the town by the Lesinsky Brothers, who built the first copper smelter on Chase Creek.
