making it one of the oldest such establishments in California. The lot upon which it stands has been occupied by some kind of building since 1849, when Ellis Evans and his partner D.
C. White put up grocery and general provision store near the spring which gave the town its earliest name.

two-story front facing Main Street and a three-story back facing the creek.
