In 1872 a group of young men organized a debating and public speaking society with Geo. H. Brimhall as president and erected this building. Samuel Brockbank had charge of getting logs and construction, John F. Gay was carpenter, and Nicholas Smith was timekeeper. Forty-five or forty-six shares at $15,00 each were subscribed. A stove, teacher's desk, and blackboard were purchased, and the cost was $675.00. School opened February 3, 1873, with Wm. Beesley as instructor. Each student bought a desk. The building was used for meetings, schools, socials, and a library, and was moved to the park February 22, 1932.
