3 W. 4th St. SNELLING house (taken from S. Lincoln & W. 4th St.) Res. SNELLING, David P. (corner of 4th St. & Freemont) built 1869, gone [Page 48 from 100 year book: “SUGGETT Residence This house built by Judge David P. SNELLING nearly a century ago, is now the residence of Helen and Ray Suggett, formerly of Chicago. Judge Snelling was born in Maine and worked in the ship building business in New Hampshire as a youth, which may account for the cupola with windows on all sides which in the old days adorned the roof. After joining the gold rush, going to California by ship and across the Isthmus of Panama on foot and horseback, he returned home the same way and decided to settle in the middle west. He chose Kinmundy, and built this fine old home, which is one of the community’s show places, since the Suggetts bought and remodeled it.”]
